We are so incredibly proud to partner with The Mill, Bonduel and The Mill's Closet

We dropped off a fresh restock order yesterday and had a blast doing a quick interview with them.

If you haven’t been out to visit them in Bonduel yet, you are truly missing out. The way they completely restored and brought this beautiful, historic building back to life is absolutely breathtaking on the inside. It is the ultimate cozy spot to grab a specialty drink, shop local, and hang out.

Check out their original post below to read a bit more about our story and the signature products we make for them! Go give them a follow, and make sure to plan a trip to check out this gorgeous space in person.

If you mosey on back to the boutique you will know one of our most popular items we have is Wanderlust Scents roll on or spray perfumes

I order weekly or for sure biweekly

And it’s a lot

This is a local business located in Waupaca WI

The area I was raised

He’s very well known for having great scents and a very very cool old shop in Waupaca

His little shop is located in an old bank

Where a banker was murdered long ago.

Still unsolved

The store is not creepy I swear

Keith and I went there and created The Mill, Bonduel scent that you all love

Andy, the man pictured, is a veteran

He and his beautiful wife now run a super successful shop that sells their product in 8 different countries and is in over 100 different stores here in the United States!

How lucky are you to be able to grab his products right here in Bonduel?!

They launched a new scent called, Saving Tucker

They adopted a few dogs from a massive dog hoarding puppy mill in Texas.

Their dog Tucker has a lot of trauma

Every bottle of, Saving Tucker purchased, 10% goes back to designated shelters of their choice

Why is it that we attract dog people?!! Our staff, our customers, our venders…. Maybe there’s a correlation

Dog people are good people 😉

Last question I’m sure you have

Is it clean?!?

Do they test on animals?

You are safe with Wanderlust!

“At Wanderlust Scents, we believe you shouldn’t have to choose between a beautiful fragrance and your well-being.

While many brands are just now jumping on the "phthalate-free" train, we’ve been operating far beyond that standard for years. Every Wanderlust fragrance is formulated in-house and then custom-produced for us to meet our strict proprietary Wanderlust Protocol: Pure. Proven. Precise.

By owning the formula from the first drop to the final bottle, we ensure our oils are:

✅ Clean: 100% Phthalate, Paraben, and Gluten-Free.
✅ Safety-First: Prop 65 Free and free from Carcinogens, Mutagens, and Reproductive Toxins (CMR).
✅ Ethical Chemistry: Vegan and Cruelty-Free.
✅ Pure Lab Standard: No PFAs or PEGs.

Sophisticated scents. Strict standards. So you can Wander More and Worry Less.

Beyond the scent, it’s about the standard. Experience a fragrance designed with intention, not compromise.”

~Andy from Wanderlust

Next time you’re in stop back in the boutique

When you purchase a perfume you are supporting so much good.

We are fans of knowing the story behind a product

I tell people when they are smelling these, “he’s a good guy! Veteran. Local, gives back”

We do forgive him for being a LA Dodgers fan but that was a hard pill to swallow for Keith 😂

Now you can get his whole story.

See you soon

Thank you for supporting our business and dreams of not only ours, but so many we have here selling their products

Architecting Our #1 Seller
When I created Havana, I built a powerful, warm, city-centric narrative of to***co and leather. It was complex and grounded. But as a creator, I felt a need for balance, a complementary structure that captured a different kind of strength, something brighter, softer, and rooted in nature.
I wanted the feminine energy that perfectly mirrors Havana’s masculine strength.
That vision became Bailey’s Harbor, and I’m proud to say it’s our number one seller. It has resonated with more customers than anything else I’ve made. It is the architectural partner to my first creation, and the anchor of our entire collection.
A Playoff of Havana
Bailey’s Harbor isn’t a “dupe” or a light version of Havana; it’s a structural response. I took the warmth and the vanilla but replaced the heavy rum and leather with fresh water and delicate florals. It’s designed to dance with Havana’s profile, but shine brilliantly on its own.
1. The Crisp Opening: I opened with Fresh Lake Breeze, Bright Lemon, and Lime. It’s immediate, clean, and high-energy—the feeling of a cold morning splash in a beautiful harbor.
2. The Blooming Heart: The middle is intentionally soft and inviting. I layered in Cherry Blossom and Wild Orchids for a delicate, blooming shoreline heart that feels expansive and free.
3. The Sun-Soaked Finish: The base is where the warmth comes in, mirroring Havana’s comfort but with a lighter touch: Sand Dunes, Driftwood, and Vanilla. It’s the scent of sun-soaked skin after a perfect day. Have you tried Baileys Harbor yet?

Have you experienced an Extrait de Parfum yet?

If you love our travel-inspired scents but want them to last even longer and wear with a richer depth, it might be time to upgrade your fragrance ritual.

We’ve quietly transitioned our signature large bottles into luxury Extrait de Parfums (now available in sleek 50ml and statement 100ml sizes). But what exactly does that mean for you?

Here is the difference between an Eau de Parfum and an Extrait de Parfum:
* The Concentration: Eau de Parfums offer a standard everyday wear. Extrait de Parfums are the most premium, luxurious tier in perfumery, boasting a significantly higher concentration of pure fragrance oil.
* The Wear Time: Because of that rich oil base, Extraits project beautifully, evolve deeply on the skin, and last much longer throughout the day.
* The Scent Profile: Extraits tend to warm up on your skin over hours, amplifying the rich base notes and creating an intimate, magnetic scent trail.

Want to try before you commit?
We get it, fragrance is personal. You can still experience our traditional Eau de Parfum blends in our portable 10ml travel sprays. It’s the perfect way to test a scent journey before investing in a full-size, high-intensity Extrait bottle.
