“I didn’t know if it was possible to actually formulate one scent that could compete in the marketplace as a fine premium fragrance,” she shared. “Through this process of the perfumers constantly saying to me, ‘Where does this take you? Tell us, does it take you to a place?’ I realized what I was trying to formulate was my father’s cologne.”
Michelle went on to say that it can be difficult to find something she “really” loves when it comes to fragrance, but once she does she fully commits. She also added that while she was developing Henry Rose, she found herself choosing scents that reminded her of her father.
“I didn’t know that’s what I was doing, and I didn’t know that was why I gravitated toward that particular category in fragrance is because it’s very emotional and you can always track it back to a really pleasant experience in your life,” she said.
She also shared some insight into what led her to choose the brand’s name, which is equally personal. “I kept thinking and reflecting on what feels organic and authentic to this brand. And I kept coming back to my kids. And so it’s their middle names, and so it’s Henry and Rose and you know, and it also reflected that it was a genderless brand, which was important,” she said.
