Sea Foam featured in Marie Claire's Six Sustainable Fragrances for Conscious Spritzing

The beauty industry’s journey to become sustainable has its consumers to thank for it. We as individuals have the power to demand change and it all begins with our daily routines. So, what’s in yours? As scent is so personal, we emotionally purchase, checking out with the fragrance that connects us to a time, a place or a memory and consequently overlooking any eco-conscious effort.

Review of Le Joker by Henrique Perrella

"Are we facing a conceptual perfume that has been polished and made pleasant for the consumer? Or do we have a fragrance that challenges the limits of the commercial and manipulates the perception of your audience? For me, it is the most interesting aspect of Le Joker, this mystery that seems to require reflection and wisdom in order for it to be understood."
