Here is a list of recent events for which we have garnered a lot of press from Dan's Papers, Hamptons.com, Newsday.com, BeautyStat.com, BeautySweetspot.com and the latest is that Sue Phillips has been named the IT Girl of the week on AskMattandTamsen.com.

PR PRESS RELEASE
http://www.prweb.com/releases/2010/05/prweb3940524.htm


I have just returned from a fabulous trip to London where I worked with Robin Taylor from The Perfume Studio at a wonderful Eco-Friendly park in Chiswick and we presented and made up custom scents for about 66 people in 2 hours! A lot of talking and blending but everyone loved their Bespoke Signature Perfumes!

Then to Paris  and St Malo where I have seen the most amazing new Scent Technology. It is so exciting to see all the new development in fragrance delivery systems and I believe this will revolutionize sampling as we know it. 

I have just written my second article for GLOW MAGAZINE which will be published for the Fall and it is all about the correlation between Smell and Taste and I interviewed Dr Robert Henkin - a fascinating doctor who has spent his life researching Taste and Smell and how to help those who have lost their Sense of Smell, and overcome this impairment

On July 14 we shall be collaborating with Wesport Country Playhouse for a Ladies' Night Out of Food, Wine, Custom Fragrance and a Samuel Beckett Play...Happy Days!  For Reservations please call or email immediately, as we already have a large audience and space is now becoming limited.

JANUARY 2010 ......Updating this blog

Finally, I have the time to put pen to paper to reflect on a wonderful mother/daughter trip and probably the best trip of my adult-life. I am so grateful to have had this fantastic opportunity!!

I have just spent 3 weeks with my college-aged daughter in Spain and Morocco and we had the time to rekindle our already-good relationship. However, as one can imagine, the thought of spending 3 weeks 24/7 with a college-aged-post-teen-age young woman, who has very definite ideas, likes and dislikes can be daunting, and although I didn’t give it a thought whilst preparing for the trip, I must say that on the trip, we both discussed the fact that it could have been a huge challenge but we loved the time together to just BE! To relax and sleep when we wanted to. To eat what and when we wanted to. To have the opportunity to spend hours in shops learning about, and trying the fragrant herbs and spices in the Souks in the Medinas of Fez and Marrakech, or to even to go H&M in Malaga or little Spanish boutiques in Torremolinos to find outfits for New Year’s Eve with no-one hassling us to ‘hurry up!’

Life without deadlines was bliss (other than needing to be punctual to avoid missing flights and trains in foreign countries) Sheer bliss!

What started out as a trip to Spain to help pack up my daughter who had been studying in Seville for the first semester of her junior year, and then to help get her installed for the second semester in Barcelona 3 weeks later, turned into an amazing adventure for us both. We had always wanted to visit Morocco and due to the close proximity of Southern Spain to Fez we decided to explore the mysteries of Morocco before beginning her next semester.

I certainly had a great deal of trepidation about being away from Scenterprises for 3 full weeks, stemming from the fact that as a business owner of a fledgling fragrance marketing company which has started to gain traction and which I am so excited about, I did not feel that I should be away that long. However, I justified my fears by internalizing (and …substantiated by friends and colleagues) that ‘nothing REALLY happens during the holiday’s’ and the thought of “when else will I ever have the opportunity to have 3 weeks’ carefree vacation with my daughter again?” And of course the biggest fear was being away over the Christmas Holidays and needing to generate business in an awful economy. As a friend of mine says OY VEIGH!

However this past year I resolved to follow the principals of Eckart Tolle and Gina Lake which, in a nutshell, is The Power of Now and Living in the Now...which means living TODAY and not in the past nor the future. Thinking about the past cannot change it, and to worry about and plan for the future won’t make it happen the way one anticipates it to, and so with an incredibly positive attitude about my new-found freedom, and being so grateful for the blessings in my life, and for the opportunity to spend time with my daughter and experience new horizons, I booked the trip and planned our itinerary.

I arrived in Seville on Dec 19 and this tall, beautiful, head-full of amazing curls intertwined with her signature-turquoise-blue color pashmina scarf tied' boho-chic' around her neck came flying into the airport to meet me. Her wonderful big smile soon turned into tears as we embraced and clung to each other, neither one of us wanting to break the moment with trivial words of welcome. We then explored the delights of Seville and drank Agua de Sevilla - a fantastic concotion of pineapple, rum, vodka, champagne (!)...and watched the flamenco dances and singers!

We stayed in Seville for 3 days, drove down to Cordoba stopping at Carmona and then Malaga to pick up a friend and then to stay in Torremolinos for 5 days – where it rained pretty much non-stop The car and my driving on a stick shift was yet another story! (for another blog!)

For someone who has been in the Cosmetic & Fragrance Industry for the past 30 years, and who is now offering Multi-Sensory Custom Perfume Experiences, I was eagerly anticipating our sojourn to Morocco and excited to experience the sensorial delights I have read about for years. And what an experience it was!

From a multi-sensory standpoint, the Souks or markets in the Medinas of Morocco are extraordinary. One’s senses come alive and are constantly delighted – the "ooooh’s" and "aaaaah’s" are well deserved.

Our actual pictures will be posted on Facebook soon, and I shall also describe in detail the amazing fragrances, ingredients and impressions of the extraordinary scentsory aspect in a soon-to-be-published article in a fabulous magazine.

Happy New Year, (and this one has been really HAPPY thus far!)
Scentfully,
Sue

Bespoke Fragrance Lab Looks to Expand

Stagnant fragrance sales may be bad news for manufacturers and distributors, but there may be a silver lining for small entrepreneurs looking to shake up the industry.

To that end, U.K.-born custom fragrance company The Perfume Studio looks to provide a hands-on experience and scent education along with a one-of-a-kind juice.“This is for people who don’t want to smell like everyone else,” said Sue Phillips, president of Scenterprises, The Perfume Studio’s U.S. distributor.

“It’s a chance to connect and share with others,” added Phillips, who has worked on scents for Tiffany & Co., Burberry and Diane von Furstenberg. The Perfume Studio offers $45 seminars for consumers who want to create an individual fragrance. After sampling 18 vials with different custom-blended essential oils, consumers choose three or four blends to create a custom formula, which they name and register with The Perfume Studio.

“No two fragrances are ever alike,” said Phillips. “They are a personal reflection of moods and emotions.”Participants choose from a variety of refillable flacons ranging in price from $25 to $135 to package their fragrance. A selection of purse sprays, hand-blown crystal bottles and a scented atomizer pen are among the options.

“This is great for wedding parties, spas, company events or just a girl’s night out,” said Phillips. “It’s a celebration of the sense of smell.”Information about the The Perfume Studio is available at Scenterprises.com, and Phillips said she is looking to expand in the States through television shopping networks, and spa and salon distribution channels in the coming months.
