Bespoke
Centauri Bespoke
A bespoke fragrance is the most personal expression of perfumery I offer.
Bespoke commissions start from £695. This includes the use of exceptional natural and synthetic materials. Should your project require unusually large quantities of particularly rare or costly ingredients, any additional material costs will be discussed and agreed upon before the commission begins.
Each bespoke perfume begins with a conversation. If you have a concept, memory, place or feeling you would like transformed into fragrance, I invite you to get in touch to discuss your ideas.
As every project requires a significant investment of time and creative attention, I accept only a very small number of bespoke commissions each year. Commissions are accepted entirely at my discretion, based on my availability and whether I feel I can create something that genuinely does justice to your vision.
If your project is accepted, we will begin with a consultation by email, telephone or Skype to explore your ideas and establish the creative direction.
From there, I will compose three individual interpretations of your concept for you to experience, which will be provided in 2ml samples. If you love one of these you can select that to be made into the final perfume, or if you require alterations, after receiving your feedback, I will refine the direction and create three further final variations. From these final versions you can choose your favourite, and I will produce your finished bespoke perfume.
Your bespoke commission includes:
- Two 30ml bottles of your finished Centauri fragrance in the colour of your choice. Presented with the Star Logo plate.
- Six 2ml samples of the final fragrance, each presented in a Centauri cotton pouch for sharing.
Your fragrance formula will be archived exclusively for you, allowing additional bottles to be commissioned in the future, subject to the availability of the raw materials used. The cost of future bottles will depend on the materials used.
Enquiries
If you are interested in commissioning a bespoke fragrance, please get in touch through the contact page with a brief description of your idea or inspiration. I will be happy to discuss the project and let you know whether I feel it is a suitable commission.
Please note an enquiry does not guarantee a commission.
