The fourth version of Elements Showcase the curated trade show for all thing fragrant just wrapped up after two days August 20-12, 2012 in NYC.

Atelier Cologne will be launching two new Cologne Absolues created by Master Perfumer Jerome Epinette in October 2012. As in Vanille Insensee and Ambre Nue by Ralf Schwieger, the Company explores raw materials typically not associated with classic colognes- Rose and Vetiver.
House of Matriarch was launched on Christi Meshell’s 36th birthday (November 28, 2009). All of her perfumes are in custom painted bottles. Brilliantly blending actual essences and capturing subtle energies, these scents show that one can stay true to core beliefs, respect Nature, myth and history while bringing them to life through perfumery.
