Sand Castle Wine Expert, Joe Maxian and Scenterprises' Fragrance Expert, Sue Phillips, invite you on an extraordinary taste and fragrance journey.

Father's Day is always on the third Sunday in June; a day on which fathers are particularly honored by their children, especially with gifts and greeting cards. Despite the enormous recent tragedy, we are still in the USA where celebrating life, love, freedom and fatherhood is a day to honor our loved ones. This Father's Day we are offering our unique Introductory Fragrance kit for men everywhere to reflect their personality and individuality with a glorious Custom fragrance and shall be donating 10% of our proceeds to Alzheimer's Foundation so that we NEVER forget what happened, and we can make a small difference through Fragrance. Men typically love sporty refreshing vibrant colognes that remind them of the brisk outdoors; woodsy creamy, sensual notes of Sandalwood, and warm oriental amber buttery ingredients that remind them of  bucolic surroundings. Imagine a stunning combination of all them to have a completely unique Fragrance? If you are not sure which notes the dad in your life likes, let him take our Scent Personality Test   https://scenterprise.wpengine.com/scent-personality-quiz/  We’ll create a signature scent that reflects his individuality and personality.

• WEEKLY “SCENT NEWS:” 

Isaac Mizrahi’s “Color Wall”

Looking for a multi-sensory way to spend a weekend? Take a tour to the Upper East Side of Manhattan and immerse yourself in the Senses. I love discovering new exhibits about fragrance at galleries and museums. THE COOPER HEWITT  2 E 91st St, New York, NY 10128 showcases “BEAUTY (opened in Feb and is on display until August 21) “Cooper Hewitt Design Triennial” and celebrates Design as a creative endeavor that engages the mind, body and senses. The exhibition features more than 250 works by 63 designers and teams from around the globe, and is organized around 7 themes- extravagant, intricate, ethereal, transgressive, emergent, elemental, and transformative. I was naturally fascinated by the interactive ‘scent’ wall which has a visual schematic of Central Park, and by touching the adjacent area one can ‘experience’ the scents associated with Central Park. (Disclosure: I loved the concept; but didn’t really feel that the scents were adequately diffused). The exhibition is installed on the first and third floors of the museum and offers an immersive, multisensory experience that guides the visitor through a dramatic procession of the individual works.  With projects ranging from experimental prototypes and interactive games to fashion ensembles and architectural interventions, Beauty presents works of astonishing form and surprising function while examining the essential question: “Why beauty now? 

Next: was Isaac Mizrahi’s An Unruly History– at The Jewish Museum   1109 5^th Avenue, NY NY 10128    till August 7 This is not about fragrances but Isaac’s exhibition is ablaze with color and I always think about how color and fragrance are associated- synesthesia.  Which colors do you smell?  As I tweeted after I saw the exhibition, “RUN, don’t walk to this exhibition” (!)  and glory in the unabashed pleasure of over-the-top fashions in colors that defy the ubiquitous color of inky black fashion, so prevalent in NY CITY Scenterprises; The Scentarium and “Scentertainment® I’m always excited to highlight interesting events and clients we’ve had the pleasure of working with to create exquisite Custom Scents at The Scentarium and also for large corporate events.  Our Fragrance Bars are an ideal way to design your own fragrance which we’ve presented for David Tutera’s “Your Wedding Experience” in Philadelphia in February, as well as several client appreciation events for CareRite Rehabilitation Centers, with whom we love collaborating to give their social workers a unique opportunity to create their own scents. I was thrilled to be a speaker at The “Senses-UP” Summit, sponsored by Dianne Devitt of the DND Group  http://www.senseupsummit.com/speakers/ - this was a true multi-sensory event with compelling speakers, in which ALL the senses were discussed, savored, sniffed, touched, seen and heard.  Hmmm perfect! Excited to share that we shall be presenting our ‘Discover your Scents” Day for the iconic luxury brand Bulgari in which we shall present our Fragrance Journey to their sales and marketing professionals and shall explore their beautiful fragrances by ‘deconstructing’ three of their new perfume launches and then ‘construct’ them to showcase how fragrances are created! 

And this week is the highlight of my career! I am so excited and grateful to be an Honoree at TJ Martell’s “Women of Influence” Luncheon at The Plaza Hotel on May 13 where they have raised over $271miillion for cancer research. To be in the company of so many formidable Influential women, I am thrilled and encouraged that Fragrance continues to be the source of my passion and that I have been able to influence, stimulate and create ‘scentsory’ perfume experiences for so many fragrance lovers, and continue love being a ‘Scentrepreneur’! Till next time, Fragrant Hugs, Scentfully 

We can't think of a more incredible way to celebrate your amazing mom than to create a personal, customized perfume just for her… And it's so easy!

Happy Spring!!  Hope this finds you well. 

Some of you may know this already but I am thrilled to be nominated as an HONOREE for the TJ MARTELL FOUNDATION’S WOMEN OF INFLUENCE Luncheon at the Plaza Hotel on May 13. It is such an honor to be chosen by an organization that is so altruistic, and which raises funds for such a worthy cause. Tony Martell is now retired from the music industry, but it was through Music that gave him the impetus to keep a promise to his son to find a cure for cancer, and today the TJ Martell Foundation has raised over $270 million for leukemia, cancer and AIDS research. Music is so fundamental to my wellbeing, too, as it is one of the joys of life and I grew up in South Africa, surrounded by music and art, inspired by mother.  Imagine a world without Music? Imagine a life without any of the Senses? That is why I am so honored to be chosen as a Woman of Influence because it is through the Senses that we can help people bring about positive change; bring HAPPINESS to those in need of it, and also to find a cure through the Senses for these terrible diseases. It is humbling to be honored and to be in the company of so many other remarkable women, and it only makes me want to work even more effectively and strategically to strive to make a greater difference. I know that many of you won’t be able to attend, but I wanted you to know that it is through my passion and love for the work I do in Fragrance that I believe this has come about, and so I am excited to share this with you. Of course, if you can make a donation or attend, it would be wonderful and so appreciated, as it is for an excellent cause, Warmest wishes, Scentfully Sue Phillips Invitation  

Honoree Questions for Social Media Campaign  - SUE PHILLIPS

RESPONDS: 1.What does it mean to you to be chosen as a Woman of Influence by the T.J. Martell Foundation? It is such an honor to be chosen by an organization that is so altruistic, and which raises funds for such a worthy cause. Tony Martell is now retired from the music industry, but it was through Music that gave him the impetus to keep a promise to his son to find a cure for cancer, and today the TJ Martell Foundation has raised over $270 million for leukemia, cancer and AIDS research. Music is so fundamental to my wellbeing, too, as it is one of the joys of life and I grew up in South Africa, surrounded by music and art, inspired by mother.  Imagine a world without Music?

  2.What piece of advice would you give to young women today to inspire them to follow their dreams? As Adjunct Professor at LIM College, I try to motivate and inspire my students to believe in themselves, and to explore their surroundings, as they are living in one of the greatest cities of the world. I tell them that it’s important to fuel their passions and to open themselves to all kinds of opportunities. “You’re living in New York City. Avail yourself of everything that is here; the museums and galleries, lectures and parks. When you go from class to class; look around you, look up at the spectacular New York city views and architecture…keep your eyes open!” There’s so much that can help them in their future endeavors. Many of them are obsessed with reality shows, so I try and broaden their horizons and to inspire them to think exponentially. And, if they fail in their endeavors, my motto is to ‘never give up’ and to keep going! Hopefully they remember my words and dream big!

  3. What steps do you take to make health and wellness a priority in your life? Having been witness to so many people who have been afflicted with cancer, leukemia, AIDS and Alzheimer’s, I try and live my life in as healthy a way as possible. Exercise and a wholesome diet are important to me, but also incorporating beauty and the joy of Art, Music, Fragrance and other Senses, are ways to enjoy a ‘scentsory’ life, to completely ensure my wellbeing. I believe in the doctrine that pleasure or happiness is the highest form of wellness!
