The Los Angeles Artisan Fragrance Salon awards were announced yesterday (click on the medal image to see all the categories). Congratulations to all the perfumers who won, and also to those who didn't win - because I think you are all doing amazingly creative and meticulous work and being amazingly couragoues and daring to put it out there!

Special congratulations to the new lines who launched during this salon - Parfums Lalun and SANAE Intoxicants. And to the Best of Salon winners - Sarah Horowitz Parfums, 40notes and House of Matriarch.

I'm pleasantly surprised to find out that Ayala Moriel Parfums got three awards - 2 Bronze for "Most Unique" and "Best New Product" - and a Silver award for "Top All Around Product Line"!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
