Coolblues (Citrus Chypre) ~ Coolblues builds like a smooth jazz composition, starting with the lively, harmonious intro of bright citrus notes.  The melody then expands into a vibrant fresh burst of lemon verbena leaf and crisp aromatic basil, notes that dance like a playful improvisation.  As the performance continues, the base finale brings the rich, grounding, woody musk resonance of french tree moss and sandalwood - deep, resonant, and smooth like the final notes of a soulful saxophone.  Jane's Inspiration: Each September, one of the best Jazz festivals in the world comes to Monterey California. One unforgettable year, amidst the awesome array of jazz, Jane had the chance to sit in an intimate theater and listen as jazz legend Lionel Hampton shared stories from his youth in Chicago, her hometown.  As Lionel reminisced about jamming with iconic figures like Charlie "Yardbird" Parker, the energy in the room was electric.  He shared how Charlie would o..

Lucky (Citrus Chypre) ~ Inspired by the sense of good fortune that follows those who dare to dream, Lucky is a fragrance that captures the essence of a serendipitous moment, where fate and fortune intertwine.  The journey begins with the vibrant, zesty burst of lime, uplifting the spirit with bright, citrus energy.  The heart reveals a fresh, herbal blend of peppery french basil and earthy sage, evoking clarity and focus, while the base settles into a grounding richness with creamy sandalwood and french moss, exuding earthy depth and warmth.  In the spirit of Lucky, we ask - do you feel lucky?  This phrase echos the iconic line from Clint Eastwoods's Dirty Harry - a nod to his legendary role in film, but also a tribute to very town where our story began. Carmel, California, known for it natural beauty, artistic community, and of course Clint Eastwood as its former mayor, inspired many of our creations.  Just as Clint's characters often defied the odds, Lucky i..

Kincaid (Mossy Wood Chypre) ~ Kincaid is a mossy wood fragrance that embodies both protection and courage to re-emerge stronger.  It opens with the soft, powdery essence of Bulgarian lavender, creating an initial calming aura, while the heart unfolds with the invigorating, green vitality of Monterey pine.  The fragrance deepens as it settles into earthy vetiver and mosses, creating a grounding base that speaks to the heart of the forest. Kincaid connects you to nature's cycles of retreat and renewal - a powerful reminder to honor the heart in times of introspection while also embracing the strength to step forward and re-emerge from the cave with renewed vigor. It's a scent that weaves a journey of transformation and resilience.  Jane's inspiration: Kincaid was created for our dear friend, Jeff, the talented artist that helped craft the authentic 15th century French gold gilding of our Carmel boutique. During the construction, Jeff approached Jane with a request ..
