“Romance is the glamour which turns the dust of everyday life into a golden haze.”

- Elinor Glyn

Top Notes: Velvety Rose
Heart Notes: Vintage Wooden Furniture & Vanilla
Base Notes: Warm Powdery Musks

Velvet Venus guides you through a vibrant memory, capturing a love song in a bottle. Where dusty roses bloom in the corners of your mind, vintage wooden furniture is draped in velvety splendor, a vanity is cluttered with unread books and perfume bottles, your favorite record is spinning and the soft breeze from the open window carries the warm powdery embrace of vanilla and musks.

Like the fading echo of a forgotten love song, Velvet Venus envelopes you in a timeless ballad where every gentle note leaves you entranced by its enduring elegance.

Velvet Venus explores the concept of the “It Girl” that was introduced into the popular cultural lexicon in 1927 by Author and Screen Writer Elinor Glyn. Her book “IT” would be adapted into one of the most successful silent films of the time, starring the indescribable Clara Bow. This role would go on to immortalize Clara Bow as the first IT Girl of the Silver Screen.

This scent is love letter to women like Clara Bow, Josephine Baker, Rita Hayworth, Marilyn Monroe and Edie Sedgwick who all possessed that “IT” that draws others in with magnetic force.

A Note from The Artist on the Creation of Velvet Venus:

“The creation of Velvet Venus took me completely by surprise as I’ve always hated commercial Rose Scents since I was a young girl, I found them to be quite soapy and unpleasant.

I had this blurry concept of a vintage vanilla musk in mind, an ode to the muses of the past, a scent for The Lovers. But I was struggling with the formulation and knew that it was missing something vital. My wife had been encouraging me to add Rose for some time which I insisted would be too soapy and conceptually cliche.

But from that first sample batch using Rose, Velvet Venus was born. A scent that was worthy of the very muses that inspired its creation.”
