The Maker

We are beyond excited to share that our Spiritus Candle has been honored with the 2024 Allure Best of Beauty Award for Best Woody Candle!    Allure received 7,587 entries for 2024, and winning is a significant mark of trust and approval from one of the most respected voices in beauty.    Allure’s words capture it perfectly:    "Woody and smoky, The Maker Spiritus Candle is a whole mood. Housed in a fluted glass vessel, it emits notes of frankincense and vanilla that make it feel like a holdover from an old-fashioned gentleman’s club. But cannabis brings it very new-fashioned sensibilities."    For a small, growing brand like ours, this recognition holds immense value, enabling us to continue sharing our clean, quality fragrances with more people.    A huge thank you to our Co-Founder and Fragrance Architect, Lev Glazman, and to Fragrance House Robertet and Perfumer Jerome Epinette for their brilliance. And, thank you to Allure Magazine, our passionate Maker Team, and our amazing community for helping us achieve this milestone!

Our latest scent, Lover has been winning hearts and now it's officially won Bustle's Best Woody Fragrance Award! "I've never gotten more compliments on a fragrance — one day I wore this on set and every single person from the makeup artist to the photographer stopped to ask what I was wearing...What I love about this scent is that it's subtle and not overpowering — it's sandalwood with a creamy, sweet tinge, and one spritz really does feel like you're hugging your lover.” - Faith Xue, Executive Beauty Director of Bustle Digital Group Feel the love and read all about it here.

Hello, Lover.  We are so excited to finally introduce Lover Eau de Parfum – our new, hypnotic warm woods scent that launched on 12/4 exclusively on Sephora.com. It’s the first new fragrance since we debuted two years ago, and took over a year to develop.  Dreamed up by our founder and fragrance architect, Lev Glazman, Lover is inspired by the unrelenting bond between two lovers that transcends language and judgment.  "With Lover, I wanted to celebrate this sensual bond, the scent of shared intimacy, individuals blended in a moment, when inhibitions melt away, when there is no judgement, just two lovers who formed their special place where they can be “just us”. My obsession with this concept led me to envision the character of this fragrance in my head, and it's one that does not relate to any gender, one that cannot be immediately identified or classified. I wanted to leave Lover to each individual’s interpretation. After a year of development and endless fragrance compositions, I finally experienced Lover as I smelled it in my head: A fragrance that slowly unveils itself as it uniquely adapts to the wearer, like lovers that slowly discover each other’s souls. Lover is brought to life differently by each person who wears it, letting them leave their own aura behind for their lover to remember. This fragrance—and all the emotions it encompasses—has been inside of me for a very long time. To be able to finally share Lover with the world and collectively celebrate intimacy and connection together moves me beyond measure.” Stay tuned as we enter our “Lover Era” and roll-out this campaign featuring real lovers. Thank you to our partners at SEPHORA for believing in this launch!  #makingithappen #makers #lover #fragrance #sephora
