Eau Naturel in LA Times Magazine

Read "Eau Naturel" - article about natural perfumery in LA Times Magazine, by journalist and crime-novelist (and perfumista!) Denise Hamilton (The Jasmine Trade, Damage Control).

24hrs Features New Orleans Perfume

With spring-fresh notes of amber and white magnolia, I just put a tiny dab of this long-lasting pure botanical essence on my neck, and I'm already ready for mass seduction" (Sarah Rowland, 24hrs Style section)

Do I need to tell you that this made my day?
