I was also a little wary as I was ordering online, without smelling first. But a $6 a sampler, I figured, why not give them a try? Shipping was only like $4 for first class mail and each time, the package was delivered pretty quickly. Shipped on a Thursday and delivered on a Monday or Tuesday. I was really excited to try out my fragrances but then I think the package was stolen! I let The Fragrance Shop know and they sent out another package so FIVE STARS for customer service! I decided to have the package shipped to my office instead and these perfumes smell AMAZING! Santal 33 was great. I am IN LOOOOOOVE with White Tea, which smells just like Bulgari/Bvlgari "au the blanc" which is a very expensive and hard to find unisex perfume. I have yet to try the other two samples I got in the mail, but I will be ordering more samples and ordering a larger bottle or spritzer of White Tea. Also, I highly recommend trying perfume oils. Way better than typical alcohol based colognes/perfumes.

Once upon a time, I used to take my Mom's perfumes and start mixing them just because I wanted to create an all-my-own, but soon to be in high demand, attention-getting scent. It worked. Sort of. I got attention, but the repercussions were not good, and it all stunk - the attention, the creation, the repercussions and the demands. But still, even after all these years, I've thought about doing it again. A new shop recently opened in Cary that took me back to those days. Escentuelle is a studio where anyone, working with the owner/professional perfumer, can create a custom scent. Although I didn't take that step, I spent a few moments speaking with Carolyn as she gave me an overview of the process, how she started in this uncommon business and the types of base fragrances that start things off. Some are essential oils, others are not, but for all, the fragrance notes once isolated, give a new perspective on the previously-thought ordinary. Because she had an upcoming booking, and her studio was set up for that, I had a preview and brief summary of what was in store for her group. It's part chemistry and part aromatherapy. Once the scent is created, a process that begins by picking a core scent and then gradually layering through to the top note, you can reorder it. There are some ready-made custom scents available if you don't have the time. Nevertheless, ninety minutes of time to get a unique fragrance seems like a reasonable trade off.

Imagine sitting down at the perfumer's organ, creating your own signature scent using all your…read morefavorite notes, but with an expert by your side to ensure the end result is wearable and delightful. That's the experience you'll have Escentuelle. I can't stop sniffing the wonderful, complex scent Carolyn helped me put together today. She is very knowledgeable, has a great "nose," and will walk you through the process. Whether you know a lot or a little about perfumes, you'll have a great time and leave with a scent to treasure!

I enjoyed the creative experience that Lip Print Beauty Bar offered for a Galentine's event I attended. Lip Print Beauty Bar was a great opportunity to engage in something meaningful and catch up with my friend. It was exciting to see the colors we chose because the colors said a lot about our personalities. The experience was a good time and memorable. I played it safe with a neutral lip gloss for everyday use. I added a vanilla scent and raspberry brulee taste. I wanted something fun for the Loveday. Happy to know the ingredients used are all-natural, vegan, and cruelty-free. I will be back again to create lipstick. The owners were so helpful and accommodating.

I arrived with two friends and we made lip gloss, lipstick, bath scrub, and a bath oil. The instructor helped guide us through colors as we described what we were going for (I.e nude lip versus bold). We tried different colors and then she instructed us how to mix the ingredients together. It was amazing to create this on our own and leave with our own lip sticks that we could say we made ourselves. The oils smelled devine. We had an amazing time not just with each other but we laughed the whole time with our instructor as well. It was an amazing experience and we will definitely be back with more friends.
