Supreme Feather – Jusbox<\/p>\n

The 1960s were an era of constant change and a golden age as the first steps towards a more equal world were taken. It marked the beginning of the feminist movement and the Civil Rights Act in 1964 and a time when all these could come together in the form of some rather wonderful female vocals such as Shirley Bassey, The Supremes and Aretha Franklin.<\/p>\n

Feather Supreme is directly inspired by Aretha Franklin, one of the most influential voices of the \u201860s. Known as \u201cThe Queen of Soul\u201d, she combined the sounds of gospel, R&B, jazz, and pop to create melodies and sounds.<\/p>\n

Feather Supreme is a celebration of Aretha Franklin as a symbol of female equality and black advancement. Scents of mandarin, bergamot orange, rose, ylang-ylang, and patchouli make this perfume a direct representation of the feminine, elegant, and sophisticated tunes of soul music.<\/p>\n

Purple and black, the colours of Feather Supreme, portray the funk\u00a0yet soft attitude of the aromas bottled inside. Simplicity can be found in this luxurious glass perfume which transcends time the same way Aretha Franklin\u2019s voice is passed through generations of music lovers.<\/p>\n

Jusbox preserved a piece of history and created a new perfume for every woman who wants to stand out and take over the world one fragrant step at a time.<\/p>\n

Artisan Pure \u2013 John Varvatos<\/p>\n

Following the tradition of his previous perfume collections, John Varvatos\u2019 new perfume, the fourth\u00a0in the Artisan series, combines the brand\u2019s rock-n-roll style with a new exotic aroma.<\/p>\n

Inspired by the scents and laidback lifestyle of Mexico, birthplace of Senior Perfumer and Vice President of Creation at Givudan Fine Fragrances Rodrigo Flores-Roux’s, Artisan Pure is so very much a personal perfume which captures natural the coffee and citrus groves of South America. Its comfortable and relaxed aroma is also influenced, like all his perfumes, from Varvatos\u2019 latest fashion collection of light and airy natural-tone fabrics.<\/p>\n

Artisan Pure is a refreshing and crisp scent and adds a new warm tone to John Varvatos\u2019 perfume collection. Consisting of citrus, Spanish lemon, Valencia orange, jasmine, cedarwood, and coffee, its distinctive smell of fresh herbs and woody accents brings back the summer vibe which is now lost in the midst of winter.<\/p>\n

The old-world craftsmanship and sophistication of modern techniques is what makes this perfume stand out. Bottled in Varvatos\u2019 iconic flask bottle and wrapped in almond hued, hand-woven rattan, Artisan Pure is the new fragrance addiction.<\/p>\n

Artisan Pure is a summery day, a bit of luxury for every man who longs for an exotic laid back summer filled with rock-n-roll vibes.<\/p>\n
