Lavender Clouds & Poetry is a small batch, non-toxic fragrance brand that captures the beauty offered by nature and delicately bottles it in beautiful artisan glass vessels.
Our collection of handcrafted fragrances are made in small batches using precious essential oils, plant essences and natural aromatic isolates. .Each formula is aged for three months before it’s packaged in hand-painted bottles. Every single bottle is one-of-a-kind like the women who wear it.
We believe in celebrating the beauty of nature and fostering connection through fragrance.
We design fragrances that effortlessly weaves its way into those simple everyday moments that become your most treasured memories. Maybe it’s the perfume your mom wore for extra special occasions, the smell of homemade caramel filling your grandmothers kitchen, the musky smell of his favorite jacket or the deep purple violets that grow along your fence. These simple scents have the power to flood your mind with memories, and catapult you into a past moment.
My Perfume is an expression of oneself. It is an extension of who you are, what you feel, value and love.
My obsession with fragrance started as as small child watching my mother dab perfume on her wrists, and inhaling the enchanting sonnet of notes that took over the room.
A few years ago, I became infatuated with creating beautiful fragrances by blending precious oils that had been pressed, macerated and picked from mother nature. Using my nose, memories and desires, I imagined dreamy, magnificent scents that were unlike anything else on the market. I am not a classically trained perfumer, and the industry professionals I met looked nothing like me. It was this lack of representation that drove me to launch one of a few black-owned fragrance brands.
My love of poetry and reading has opened endless doors to me as both an entrepreneur and a black woman.
I understand how literacy can increase confidence, and open the door to opportunities you never imagined possible. This has made me wildly passionate about making education and literacy available to everyone.
I have always wanted to build a brand that would have a positive impact on our world, and my passion for literacy was the most impactful and fulfilling course of action to venture on. Lavender Clouds & Poetry donates a portion of all of our proceeds to the Cultural Connections Institute. This wonderful program supports both language and cultural learning for immigrants to strengthen their literacy skills to help assist them navigate their new world.
