90. The Scent of New Beginnings – On Renewal in Perfume

👋 Hi fragrance friend,

Lately I’ve been thinking about renewal — the kind that moves through us like breath, like scent. In perfume, it happens every time a fragrance fades and we reach for it again. Renewal isn’t about chasing something new; it’s about rediscovering what still moves us and what feels like the next true step.

The Scent of New Beginnings

Each spritz is both an ending and a beginning — notes unfolding, dissolving, returning to the skin in new ways. Creation feels much the same. We begin again not because we failed, but because it’s part of the natural rhythm of life.

There’s beauty in that repetition — in refining, reimagining, reawakening. In the studio, in our homes, in our daily rituals, we learn to begin again with more care, more patience, and a clearer sense of what truly matters.

Renewal isn’t loud. It’s a whisper that says: keep going, but truer, lighter this time.

I wonder where renewal is showing up for you — in your work, your senses, your life. What are you ready to approach again, differently? If you love serene florals, read my Scented Letter on Existence by Amouage.

With warmth,
🕊 Flor at Nectar Atelier
