Unlike perfumes, which are crafted for scent and aesthetic balance, Functional Aromatics are formulated for their natural effects on the body and mind. For our functional blends, the focus is on how you feel, not just how you smell.
Rather than blending for a aroma balance of top, heart, and base notes, we prioritize the therapeutic properties of each essential oil to deliver targeted, functional benefits.

WHEN DID WE START?
We started with scents, not realizing the full potential of functional aromatics—until a long-time team member experienced perimenopausal symptoms: brain fog, sleeplessness, and hot flashes. We began formulating a blend just for her. After 3 months and over 10 iterations, Balance was born—a blend created to help her find emotional calm and support hormonal balance.
That moment marked the beginning of our Functional Aromatics journey.
Note: The team member behind Balance was so moved by the results, she pursued aromatherapy training and is now a certified aromatherapist and helps us occasionally with blend creation.
