BREAK OUT THE BUBBLY ~IT'S CELEBRATION TIME!!!

This weekend we celebrated the 3 year Anniversary of the Grand Opening of our JITTERBUG PERFUME PARLOUR!!!

It's been quite a whirlwind and it's hard to believe how fast the time flew by - it feels like only yesterday...







To mark this very special occasion, we officially launched our Les Bohemes Collection. (From Our Press Release) “Les Bohemes” (The Bohemians) is a throwback to the age of Speakeasies & wild abandon… Are you looking for an escape from the next Great Depression? Let us take you into the backroom on a journey through time where the secret password is “Jitterbug” & the good times flow like Bathtub Gin… Rich, Ultra Decadent & Shamelessly heavy on the Natural Essences – just like the scents that were constructed during Perfume’s Golden Age of the 1920’s.









And to make the CELEBRATION even sweeter, my darling friend Carrie Meredith of EyeLiner On a Cat, paid me the great honor of including me in her New Perfumer Interview Series.

I was thrilled that Carrie asked me to be part of her Series, & strongly encourage everyone to check out her wonderfully expressive & abundantly creative blog! CLICK HERE to read my Interview!



I would like to thank all of our dear clients & wonderful friends & family who joined us on this fragrant journey & supported us in our scented endeavors!

TASTY TID-BIT: THE FREEDOM TRAIN


The United States has seen two national 'Freedom Trains'. The 1947–1949 Freedom Train was a special exhibit train that toured the United States in the later half of the 1940s. A similar train called the American Freedom Train toured the country for the United States Bicentennial celebration in 1975–1976. Both trains were painted in special red, white and blue paint schemes, and both toured the 48 contiguous states with displays of Americana and related historical artifacts. The two trains took different routes around the 48 states, but they both stopped for public displays in each of them... The 1947–1949 Freedom Train was proposed by Attorney General Tom C. Clark as a way to reawaken Americans to their taken-for-granted principles of liberty in the post-war years... The Freedom Train even had an official song, written by Irving Berlin and performed by Bing Crosby and the Andrews Sisters. The train's first public display stop occurred in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on September 17, 1947.... A second Freedom Train, The American Freedom Train, toured the country in 1975–1976 to commemorate the United States Bicentennial. (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)



REMEMBER... FREEDOM IS EVERYBODY'S JOB!!!
