CB Parfume: “SCENT IS LIFE”
And therefore we introduce CB Perfume, aka, I Hate Perfume. This is a line of unique yet familiar scents whose names alone will make you want to buy them. The creator of these specialty scents is Christopher Brosius, a perfumer who is at heart both a scientists and artist. I think he's been able to combine all of his talents in to one pretty neat little package, and a good smelling one at that. If you like scent, but are turned off by the predictable, trendy perfumes that overwhelm in a crowded restaurant or bar then CB perfume is for you. To quote him directly will give you a good idea of where he's coming from.
"Scent is Life. And so it is. We live because we breathe and with each breath, we smell. This is inevitable. The Sense of Smell is our first and most immediate link to the world around us. It reminds us of what (and who) we love. Smell is perhaps the most complex sense we possess and possibly this is why it is the least understood and most often taken for granted…"
I have been a fan of CB perfume for years and I use them in so many ways. They are great as a perfume (most are gender neutral), they also work splendidly as a mist for your sofa or furniture before guests arrive. Keep one in the bathroom as an air freshener that doesn't smell like a urinal cake. It's also nice to spray some on your hand towels or as a linen spray. The perfumes aren't full of icky alcohol and chemicals so it's safe just about anywhere.
If you're into original, affordable and beautiful things I highly recommend trying any of the CB collection scents. Here is a list of what we are currently stocking at Arboretum:
- Burning Leaves
- Winter 1972
- Violet Empire
- To See a Flower
- Mr. Hulot's Holiday
- Under the Arbor
- In the Summer Kitchen
- Just Breathe
- Cedar-wood Tea
Life is beautiful!
