5 out of 5 starsI was surprised how nice this fragrance really is. This is an easy to wear everyday office fragrance very inoffensive. Smells very nice.

5 out of 5 starsNearly Nu is a fantastic fragrance. It has a similar vibe as Dedcool's Milk in terms of being an airy, skin scent if you are looking for a comparison. But I found Nearly Nu warmer and more interesting, especially because it has a beautiful whisper of vanilla. It has a gentle sillage and the fragrance lasts. I love this and would absolutely rebuy. The seller is great too; fast shipping and great packaging. Thank you!

5 out of 5 starsAhhh I love this scent!! Came today, super quick— like 3 days after I ordered it quick! And it smells *~dreamy~* It’s sweet, it’s a little bit powdery on the dry down, (at least to my nose), and it is just complex, a teeny bit spicy— just a perfect perfume for me! I love gourmands and I love vanilla and spice and this one more than fit the bill! The packaging is clean and crisp, thoughtful and secure, and the samples are generous and much appreciated!! I loved both but the Rose to Nowhere is one I will snag next! Thank you, Michael! 😊🙌🏼

Frequently asked questions
What are “pre-made” fragrance oils?
Fragrance Oils are pre-made, synthetic mixtures meant to replicate a smell, such as fruity cereal, oranges, pumpkin spice, etc; or even a perfume already in market. Many perfumes sold as “handmade” are just these fragrance oils diluted in ethanol and sold as such. “Designer” fragrance oils can be purchased inexpensively and can be used to mimic famous perfumes on the market. There are quite a few brands that do just that. Many fragrance oils contain cheap materials diluted in a carrier oil such as Diethyl Pthalate or Benzyl Benzoate.
Do I ship internationally?
Currently, I do not ship internationally.
How do I make custom perfumes?
I create custom fragrances by sitting down, in person or by screen, and figuring out exactly what the customer has in mind. The timeline can vary as can the price, depending on the customers wishes for their perfume. The formula is the customer’s own and won’t be used or given to anyone else. I have created scents for individuals and one so far for a startup men’s brand of body products. If you are interested in having a scent created, contact me and we can get started.
How long will the perfume last and will it go bad?
All perfume will spoil over time due to oxidation and the sunlight’s rays degrading the perfume. I don’t use UV absorbers (a popular one you’ll see on 99% of designer fragrances is “Ethylhexyl Salicylate) so I ask you to just store your perfume in a dark place. All perfume should be stored that way. I have printed on the labels a “12M” shelf life symbol only as a precaution. It will undoubtedly last longer than 12 months so long as it is stored accordingly.
