about denise

Denise’s journey into natural perfumery, herbalism, and aromatherapy began with a simple quest: to find gentle, nurturing alternatives for her family. Sensitive to the harshness of synthetic fragrances, she longed for scents that felt more like a warm embrace—a feeling she found in the healing gifts of nature.

As a mother, Denise explored herbalism, aromatherapy, and whole foods to support her children’s complex health needs. This led her to a life on a welcoming rural herb farm, established in 2018—a sanctuary where food, medicine, and aromatic treasures thrive side by side. It’s here, among hand-tended plants, that she learned to craft tinctures, distillations, and even the enchanting ingredients for Analu perfume and aromabutter™.

Over the years, Denise’s heartfelt volunteer work with Herbalists Without Borders has taken her on a mission to bring health justice and compassionate care to underserved communities, supporting those dealing with trauma and mental health challenges. 

Driven by a deep passion for scent, Denise realized that while aromatherapy heals, it can also sparkle with the complexity of fine perfume. So, she immersed herself in the art of natural perfumery, blending rich accords and harvesting her own flowers, barks, resins, and herbs right from her small farmstead. Today, her work is a blend of purpose, creativity, and a heartfelt commitment to creating beauty that nurtures both the body and the soul.
