Genie in a Bottle
You can design your scent around whatever you want:
•the experience of just learning about your favourite fragrances - and even stop there. It’s a very interesting educational process.
•a song you like
•a feeling, memory or favourite place
•an event you want to celebrate
•a poem or inspiration
•a yoga chant or meditation essence
•a chakra healing or Tree of Life perfume (see below)
It’s a Creative Design Process.
What to know:
•it takes time - the essences are like fine wine - accurate scent is determined through an aging process
•it is more expensive to work with natural essences and some are very pricey - depending on your fragrance palette.
•you select the oils and I will use my perfumer skills to ‘put them in the bottle’ for you
•the process is ‘transformational’ and ‘beautiful’
•custom bottles and labels can be designed
Why is the process so expensive?
•the Perfumer’s palette uses natural ingredients extracted in different ways including the use of essential oils, c02 extractions, concretes and absolutes which are much richer fragrant materials than the ones you might find in a health food store. The artistry in perfuming is the creation of a scent that will evolve on your skin over HOURS not just minutes. We do not use ‘synthetic musks’ to sustain the scent.
•your perfume is constructed using top notes, heart notes and base notes. It is not unusual to rebuild your perfume 4 times or more to get just the right result! Each time - 14 - 20% is pure jus some of which can cost over $80 per ml. The delicate floral middle notes such as jasmine, rose and tuberose are always the cherished heart notes of your signature scent and always the priciest too!
•A natural perfume is a treasured artistry and your perfume will be personal and unique to only YOU! Much like an aromatic portrait.
“Everyone picks perfume first because it meets emotional needs; second because of the desired lifestyle appeal - sensual, sporty, elegant, glamorous, fun, adventurer, romantic, artistic...”
Natural Perfumes to Light up your life!
You know, I haven't stopped tingling in my head and body since I smelled it. I didn't know I could feel energy so deeply -- It's really beautiful -- very earthy yet spicy with some surprising twists and turns”

“People ask me if natural perfumes are therapeutic and my answer is ‘absolutely’.”
Jeanne Rose
the Grand Dame of Aromatherapy
Natural essences are derived from plant sources and from some animal sources without harm done to the animal. They help us to connect as part of the web of all living things.
Years from now, people will be coming to Fragranceurs for consultations - to assist them to design potent healing scents. Not only will these smell gorgeous but they will also be designed to uplift, balance and anchor us into the essence of our potential nature.
Although the process for this is evolving, natural perfumes offer the raw materials to make the ‘invisible’ - visible.
We can draw from:
•‘sniffing’ essences you love - to determine your fragrance palette
•or the story you want to tell (see SPE)
•or a bit of both
A true NICHE experience:
$395 (includes one ‘sniffing’ session and up to 9 fragrances in an 8 ml parfum) and I will spend the time to create it for you. Revisions additional.
Pathway Perfumes
Based on the
TREE of LIFE
•my extensive training in Spiritual Phyto-Essencing also involved the study of the Kabbalah or Tree of Life.
•a Pathway Perfume is unique to you and uses the sacred numerology of your birth to determine your path. Astrological details can also be incorporated.
•you do not need to ‘sniff’ the essences as they are selected for you based on your Path. (However, if you are in the area you certainly can).
•the process includes a Tree of Life meditation to assist in determining additional themes and symbols most relevant to your scent.
•a 9 ml perfume is created for you that you can enjoy and also use to reveal deeper aspects of your inner nature.
•Powerful and Insightful

I am really enjoying the process of designing Pathway Perfumes right now.
They are personal and evocative and something that you can enjoy and be inspired by for decades!!
The process really captures all the things that I like best about ‘everything’ that I have learned so far.
