Late one spring night, husband and wife team Scott and Michele decided to bring a dream to life. Inspired by their own East-West romance, they combined their vision and expertise. Scott’s business acumen and experience in the highly demanding semiconductor industry and Michele’s passion for perfume, culture and art set them on their exciting journey.

Their mission was twofold: first, to create a line of the purest perfumes possible from the finest ingredients without alcohol, color additives, harmful chemicals or animal testing; second, to capture the passion, beauty, history, romance and glamour of the world’s most captivating cities.

With degrees in Anthropology and French, Michele drew on years of research to perfect the concepts for each perfume. The results were breathtaking. With years of meticulous development and scrupulous attention to detail complete, Heaven’s Alchemy Exquisite Perfumes debuted in early 2006 and rapidly gained a passionate following. The company quickly moved from its modest location to a larger facility and soon needed a second site.

The joy and excitement of Heaven’s Alchemy is in “traveling the world” through perfume. It is in experiencing beauty and romance through the eyes of a different culture. It is the thrill of feeling more oneself in a foreign land than at home. It is the world and all its magical possibilities unveiled through the transformative powers of pure perfume.

The Heaven’s Alchemy line consists of 13 exquisite concentrated perfume oils. Candles, diffusers, potpourri and other elegant, custom creations are also available. The company’s business consists of private label accounts, including several high end customers, and brand accounts. Headquartered in San Ramon, California, Heaven’s Alchemy is where romance lives.

The name Heaven’s Alchemy means “The Divine Art of Transformation.” It represents the transformative power of love, be it Storge (familial love), Philia (friendship), Agape (altruistic love of humanity), or Eros (romantic love). This power is known, understood and cherished by all cultures. The Heaven’s Alchemy Medallion is an artistic expansion of the Alchemical symbol for gold, the mystical symbol of enlightenment.

Sparking Romance from Paris to Istanbul, from New York to Casablanca. Heaven’s Alchemy unites divine beauty and immortal passion. Sensual, sophisticated and exquisitely pure concentrated perfume oils inspired by the great love stories of world’s most captivating cities. Wear…romance lives!

Their Pure Perfume Creations are:

Alcohol free
Color additive free
Phthlate free
Paraben free
Never tested on animals
No animal by-products
Exclusively created in the USA

I love perfumes and oils. It is a passion of mine right up there with handbags. I love smelling good, as smelling good makes me feel good about myself, almost somewhat sexier. So when I got the opportunity to review a sample pack of all 13 of Heaven’s Alchemy scents I was thrilled. I usually stick with one bottle until it is all gone but this sample pack offered me the chance to try a new scent every day. And oh my gosh, let me tell you, I can’t choose one that is my favorite because they are all some of the most exquisite scents I have ever smelled! And the amount of compliments I have received when wearing one of their scents is amazing, I don’t think people have paid that much attention to me in awhile. Especially on a recent trip I took where the woman next to me thought I smelled wonderful and even asked me to stay aside when I got off the plane so her mother could smell me (weird I know but they wrote down the name of the company and which particular scent I was wearing which at that time was Athens).

I love Heaven’s Alchemy and all their wonderful perfumes. I really can’t say enough about them. And a huge thank you to them for allowing me to sample their products, I love smelling good everyday! And they have even given me the opportunity to host a giveaway of the same sample pack I received so one lucky Dirty Shirt reader can experience the wonderful scents of the world also. See rules below to win…

You will receive all 13 concentrated perfume oils in .9 ml vials with applicator cap. Arrives in a velvet drawstring pouch.
