A wildly exotic citron from the far east and so named as the fruits look like graceful hands found on sacred Buddah sculptures. Created for indiescents.com, this all botanical fruity-floral-citrus is both refreshing and euphoric. I never tire of this glorious aroma!

Inspired by the inimitable French artist Toulouse-Lautrec and his images of Parisian high-life in the 19th Century. This luscious fruity, floral chypre-oriental speaks of nights of gaiety and memories of the Moulin Rouge!

Ma Plus Belle Histoire d’Amour: The Late Years: c.1994-2002

“Ma Plus Belle Histoire d’Amour”, is the song sung to YSL by one of his great muses, Catherine Deneuve, at his last Haute Couture show. It speaks of the great love story between YSL and his dedicated clientele. By the later years, YSL had become and icon; a legend. Ma Plus Belle Histoire d’Amour speaks to the sense of greatness of the man and his work but also of the his clientele of this time; first ladies, heads of state, socialites and powerful, established women. The fragrance is an elegant ozone, floral-floral inspired by the “Linden Wisteria Evening Coat” found in the collection. It is modern, yet timeless and truly lovely.

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. 

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.

During the Renaissance, Venice was at the height of it’s power and luxury. Not only the global force for trade in Europe of exotic spices, fabrics and ships, but also for love and seduction through their beautiful Courtesans. A famous book of the period was called simply “Secreti”; a book of beauty secrets. My Secreti di Belle Donne perfume is inspired by the famous Courtesans of Venice and Venetian delicacies as well as the work by Vittore Carpaccio, “Portrait of a Lady with a Book”.
Secreti di Belle Donne is a wonderfully rich and subtle perfume that speaks to the beauty preparations of the lovely ladies of Venice as well as the underlying erogenous scent of the lovers trysts.
