The Perfumed Plume Awards ROCK!

Sarah Colton, fragrance journalist and author of Bad Girls Perfume: Tips & Tales, winner of the 2017 Perfumed Plume Fragrance Book Award

To write about fragrance is easy; one has only to mine the hundred-and-one press releases that land on a journalist’s desk. To write intelligently, originally and passionately about the emotion of perfume, the experience of fragrance, ah … that is the challenge! It was to recognize such creative journalism that Mary Ellen Lapsansky and Lyn Leigh founded the Perfumed Plume awards. I applaud their vision and persistence. Their initiative deserves to become perfumery’s definitive standard of journalistic excellence.

Michael Edwards, fragrance expert, authority and industry ambassador

Perfumed Plume…we truly love what you are doing and see a creative writing workshop in our future.

Thanks for making this platform for writing recognition. It’s so important to shine a light on new ways of discovering and appreciating scent.

Catherine Haley Epstein, Co-Founder, Mindmarrow, 2017 Perfumed Plume Awards winner for Perfume Stories in Digital Media

Many thanks for creating this platform for fragrance journalism, it is such an important stimulus for the community! I am especially happy to have won in the visual category because it has been a focus for me right from the start to translate the beauty of fragrance into stories and, last but not least, visuals.
