. United Scents of America is the epitome of American fragrance. It is a fragrance for the people, by the people. We hope others will follow our initiative and make a conscience effort to buy American made products such as United Scents of America.
From travel and shared experiences I have come to appreciate origins and dreams as the foundation of my inspiration. Aromatics, much like people, all have a source – a geographic reference to a time and a place-MIK
There is a bold DIY ethos marked by independence, irreverence and a fresh perspective. There is also devotion to materials and quality. But most importantly, very small scale perfumers can make and maintain contact with an avid and educated audience. This is the best kind of art world
Phoenicia Perfumes was founded with the motto “No Boundaries ~ No Limitations”. My perfume lab is like a mad scientist’s, I blend for happiness and harmony, and on the other hand I am looking for to take us out of our comfort zones if only for a four-hour journey….what do we have to lose?
I’ve always been aware of the connection between science and art. When I smell a fragrance I rarely concentrate on the individual notes, instead searching for the structure, base, and foundation that inform its character. For me, being an American perfumer means respecting tradition while not being bound by it.
The greatest thing about being an American perfumer is that America is all about individuality. We are encouraged to try new things and think on our own. The Pacific coast is wide open and free of cultural traditions that inhibit creativity. -Lisa Fong. Full bottle draws of Lisa’s beautiful natural perfumes
