As we get closer to the holiday season, shopping local this year will be pretty important...

Living near the base of the Blue Hills in Milton, perfumer Sandy Carr has always had an appreciation for the natural beauty found in New England

BLUEHILL Fragrances Zest began as the result of a client’s request for a refreshing eau de cologne type fragrance for their boutique –  which then translated into the perfumer’s quest for ‘a citrus which would stay.'

I fully admit when I hear a story like Ms. Carr’s of deciding to convert hobby into independent perfumer my skepticism is high. In this case she has captured the town we know so expertly it erased any qualms. There is a clear understanding of ingredients and accords which will serve her well moving forward.

Discover her inspiration in fragrance creation fueled by her love for the New England area and its history as you learn how her training in Grasse shaped her outlook on formulating and experimentation.
