[Inspired by the psyche of Edgar Allan Poe]: A seductive yet crisp fragrance revenant of zesty blood orange, basil, and saffron blossom, captivated by warm notes of cinnamon bark, clove, and vanilla bean.
Mr. Poe encompasses the epitome of the tortured artist; his notorious characters and narrative, like in The Raven, are believed to depict and exploit his personal struggles throughout his life. Poe, lost his parents at an early age, and a very prominent and wealthy couple took him in. They alternately spoiled him and aggressively disciplined him. His tumultuous upbringing did not affect his infliction for love, finding love early in life, and married his 13-year-old cousin. She died two years later of tuberculosis. Edgar’s literary gothic short stories and poetry, as well as his inventive creative crime writing, cemented him as the mad genius of his time, although respected and celebrated. Edgar Allen Poe died on the streets of Baltimore; the cause of death is still a mystery.

[Inspired by the psyche of Oscar Wilde]: A melancholy fragrance eliciting hypnotic notes of camphor and bergamot wrapped in a melody of warm oak, vanilla and patchouli, with a hint of cedar.
Mr. Wilde, a celebrated intellect was known for his flamboyant dress and biting wit; he was always the life of the party and loved to dance and listen to music. In fact, Oscar became one of the most celebrated personalities of his day. His contagious and warm personality was no match for the law, and he was convicted for "immoral" (homosexual) behavior, and was sentenced and imprisoned to two years hard labor. It was there he wrote his last work, The Ballad of Reading Gaol, a lengthy poem echoing his experiences in prison. He died in Paris, impoverished, at the age of 46.

[Inspired by the psyche of Jane Austen]: An angelic and fresh fragrance redolent of aromatic lavender, lily, and cassis, enveloped by dry herbal notes of white and black tea, laced with a woodsy aroma.
Ms. Austen grew up in the English countryside, and lived her life constantly surrounded by her family. In fact, many believed she was too dependent on her family unit; clinging to it like a safety net, or childhood toy. She lived her adult life with her family, in their family home, hindering her from ever finding the true love and romance she often wrote about. Ironically, her stories shine a spotlight, and comically highlight the dependence of women on marriage to secure social standing during that time. Jane, a flirt, and free spirit, never did marry. One would say she was married to her literature, and her family, but was fiercely independent when it came to expressing her views, and paving her own path in romantic fiction.

Ms. Woolf, was a sophisticated author, who established her name in the London literary society. Virginia’s favorite memories took place in St. Ives of Cornwall where she and her family spent every Summer. She took solace in the gardens, never wanting to leave, hoping time would stand still.

Though her metal disorder affected her socially, her literary genius continued to impact the world, and earn the respect from all around her.
