ABOUT THE JOURNEY

My personal journey into perfume/cologne design was unconventional & unplanned. I spent 20 years in corporate financial marketing, and then my career took an unexpected (but amazing) turn in 2016 when I became intrigued with ‘clean’ perfumes. Based on personal interest only, I began blending essential oils & aromatic ingredients to create a signature scent for myself. Turned out, EVERY TIME I'd wear my ‘signature scent’ in public, I'd get stopped in my tracks with the question, 'WHAT DO YOU HAVE ON?!' So, within a very short time frame, and zero retail experience, my husband & I built a small {home} apothecary, and feverishly began blending, bottling, labeling, and stocking local shops, boutiques & salons with Pure Love Essences.

By 2019, and because my perfume/cologne project turned into {more than} a full-time job, I went back to basics and developed a solid business plan, rebranded my company, and partnered with a professional perfume house {that meets environmental & quality standards set by RIFM, IFRA, Oregon Tilth, ISSA & the NPA}. In November of 2019, my original Pure Love {Boho} recipe was successfully reformulated & relaunched even cleaner than before, as well as cruelty free, vegan, and with all ethically-sourced ingredients. Pure Love {Moroccan} & Pure Rebel will launch in the spring of 2020.

Presently, allurESSENCES LLC is rapidly growing by building new relationships with stockists across the country who have similar values & missions as our own.
