bridesmaid
A simple nosegay for the Bridesmaids…something lovely for them to experience on your Wedding Day and to take home as a reminder of your cherished friendships.
Cafe Noir
It is a Paris night. Dark and sophisticated, it evokes late concerts in smoke filled rooms…sipping coffee and listening to jazz. Captivating and sensual, Cafe Noir is an oriental fragrance that harmonizes spice, floral, resin and wood notes with the beloved aroma of black coffee. Cafe Noir fuses classical sensibilities with the flair of the artist.

Divine Gardens (Mantua)
Inspired by the allegorical image, “The Triumphs of Time, Fame and Divinity”, by a follower of Andrea Mantagna, Divine Gardens not only speaks to the imagery in the work but also Mantua’s exquisite homes and gardens of the wealthy and powerful.
This green and glorious fragrance is my first green chypre utilizing a tomato leaf note.

Egyptian Shalimar
A sweet balsamic-vanilla oriental accord with an “Eau de Cologne” top note.
Guimauve de Soie
A brand new design collaboration with Carrie Meredith from “eyeliner on a cat” blog is an abstraction of texture and synesthetic color (and a slight play on words: guimauve) which translates to “Silk Marshmallow”.
There’s a kind of dada-esque quality to the name, which I love, that speaks to the silky ‘texture’ of the fragrance and it’s overall “grey-blue-violet” tonality (connoted by the main orris note and is the ‘mauve’ reference). The odd (but wonderful) balance of orris – violet – animalic nuances counterbalanced with gourmand notes of anise and cocoa beans is quite unexpected. The gourmand aspects bring the idea of “marshmallow” into a new focus.
Guimauve de Soie is unlike anything else in my collections to date; I am very excited by this design and it’s such a pleasure to present it as my first original creation of 2012.

Muguet Cologne
Limited Edition Spring 2011:
Here is my Muguet Cologne, stated for men, but really it is for anyone. Designed in the ‘eau de cologne’ style, the concentration is lighter and the overall feel is woodier and greener than a soliflore. For me, there is something about it that rings very true to an element of Muguet… kind of stylized like an art deco figure. It’s fresh and refreshing and I feel very approachable and easy to wear. I just loved the concept of creating a Muguet Cologne for men to enjoy this delicious Spring treasure.
100% Botanical.
As well, an original art work (acrylic/ sumi ink/ interference pigment on rice paper) was created through the inspiration of creating the perfume design.
Muguet de Mai
Limited Edition, Spring 2011:
Inspired by vintage lily of the valley perfumes and the challenge to create an all botanical muguet fragrance, Muguet de Mai Perfume is a floral bouquet centered around lily of the valley; not a mere soliflore taken from the ground and placed, sequestered, in a bottle but a perfume that brings the atmosphere of May, warm and sunny with blooming flowers everywhere, green grass and wet earth. Muguet de Mai is feminine and sweet; slightly girlish and womanly, too. She is a maiden of the fields covered in lily of the valley.
100% Botanical.
* For this limited edition perfume we created 9, 5 ml antique perfume flacons in 2011. We currently have 2 left for sale. As well, an original art work (acrylic on canvas painting) was created through the inspiration of creating the perfume design. “Muguet de Mai”, 2011, can also be seen and purchased here.

Rose Vert
In a dream, I am lost in fields of roses. They are dew-drenched and velvety against my skin. Their rich scent pervades my waking hours with remembrances of deep red and green…
