In the near future, as folks have more options to choose from, I envision the mass market world of scent to begin a slow decline where smaller niche companies are able to create very unique fragrances with distinct tones and vision -Josh Meyer, owner and perfumer of Imaginary Authors
Indie American perfumers tend to prefer naturals either exclusively or in high percentages. As a result, this is helping revive interest in traditional extractions and initiate new methods of capturing plant essences using sophisticated technology
I love that American perfumers aren’t working from a predetermined script; they are creating the path themselves. Simple materials extremely well crafted define luxury. With COGNOSCENTI I seek to elevate the raw materials from simple to sumptuous.
I’ve witnessed many emerging indie niche American brands. Natural botanical perfumery continues to grow. Customers are better educated. There is an openness to explore different approaches to perfumery -Persephenie Lea
America, rich with its pioneering history, has fostered a wealth of independent perfumers working in a variety of mediums. This new land embraces all the various forms of expression, including individuals as myself who work exclusively with a palette derived from nature.
I really feel like people want something unique and made by an artist (not in a lab). American Indie Perfumers are at the forefront of creating incredibly unique, powerful and beautiful blends that are made by their own hands. We have a draw
