Insidious Hope Fragrance Studio

I'll be joining Art Crawl Thursday tomorrow evening and selling my fragrances on Dundas Street in London for all my art peeps.

I'll have loads of sample packs and a few bottles available for sale. I look forward to seeing (and smelling) you.

It's been a long while since I posted here. Life for us, as for everyone, has been confusing, depressing, and expensive of late.

Some of you may have noticed that our website is currently unavailable. This is largely due to a lack of sales, meaning: not a single sale in 9 months of operation.

We are not defeated, however. I continue to create new fragrances, 17 new scents since my last post. And I am seeking out other ways to introduce the Insidious Hope brand to people who love fragrance and are willing to pay for a new and different product on the market.

I love you all. Message me directly if you are looking for information or samples or even a face to face consultation.

Today I'm wearing Hip Hope, an absolutely gorgeous winter scent composed of deep dark notes with the sweetness of black cherry and a glorious smoked tuberose.

This is just one of the 43 fragrances I've created over the past 5 years. It happens to be the one I'm wearing today and it is, imo, really good. It always brings a smile and a sense of comfort and confidence.

If you are interested in fragrances, feel free to DM me and I will gladly send you a copy of the Insidious Hope Fragrance Studio catalogue. Or visit us at insidioushope.ca to view and/or purchase from our opening lineup of 6 amazing scents. We offer sample packs as well, so you can test our offerings before making your choice to buy.

I hope this post finds you all well and happy. And I hope that you, my friends, will give me the opportunity to brighten your day and help you to smell as beautiful as you are.

Hey, fragheads! We have some great artisinal scents that you should try. We offer Scentventure sample packs of our fragrances at a reasonable price. Check out insidioushope.ca !

SOTD. Smoky leather, oil, exhaust, asphalt and fresh mountain breezes. A solo bike ride through the mountains. One for the Road is a powerfully individualistic scent that speaks of confidence and personal freedom.

What does "artisan perfumery" mean? It means that:

I'm the Boss.

I'm the Creative Director.

I'm the Perfumer.

I'm the Investor.

I'm the Employee,

I'm the Quality Control

I'm the Marketing Agent.

I'm the Purchasing Manager.

I'm the Customer Service.

I'm the Product Designer.

I'm the Graphic Designer.

I'm the Publicist.

I'm the Packer.

I'm the Shipper.

I am ultimately responsible for every aspect of my product and my business.

You can trust that I take pride in everything I do. And you can trust that my products are worth every cent (and more) that I charge for them.

Our mission is: to offer high quality, handmade fine fragrances at a reasonable price.

If you are a fragrance lover, collector or afficionado you have to try the new Insidious Hope line of fine fragrances!

Each scent is handcrafted in my studio and macerated for a minimum of 3 months. Bottled and labled by hand with all graphics designed by me, these fragrances are an ongoing work of love and self expression .

SOTD. High Tea is a spiced tea scent with the added note of cannabis. It's perfect for any season and for almost any occasion (not really a formal scent, imo). Very uplifting. It brings me joy every time I wear it.
