PERFUME LAUNCH
In February More Amour Boutique launched a perfume for him and a perfume for her. Check them out in store at 1130 Chapel St, New Haven, CT 06511 and online.
Let's talk more about what went into the process of making the perfumes.
From the owner, Kim Poole -- As we approach our fifth anniversary, I am delighted to share the story behind our signature fragrance, Amour de Paris by More Amour. This journey began with a desire to offer something universally cherished—a scent that embodies the essence of our brand and resonates with each of you.
Embarking on this venture, I delved into the intricate world of perfumery, a realm that beautifully complements our foundation in fashion. Collaborating with a master perfumer, we engaged in numerous scent sessions, exploring a myriad of fragrances to find the perfect blend. The moment we discovered “the one,” it was an instant connection—we knew it was the scent that captured our vision.
This experience has been enlightening, deepening my appreciation for the beauty industry and igniting a passion to create more unique scents in the future. The positive feedback from those who have experienced our fragrance has been truly heartwarming.
We can’t wait to show you what the future holds as we continue this fragrant journey together.
