At Hangar South, we take pride in the intricate and time-consuming process of creating natural perfumes by hand. As artisans dedicated to our craft, we understand that developing a truly unique scent is not just about mixing a few ingredients; it's a journey that can take months and even years to perfect.
The Journey of Creating a Natural Perfume
The process of crafting a natural perfume begins long before the first drop of essential oil is blended. It involves extensive research, experimentation, and a deep understanding of the various components that make up a fragrance. Each ingredient must be carefully sourced, often from organic and sustainable suppliers, to ensure the highest quality.
Once we select our raw materials, the actual blending process can take a considerable amount of time. We meticulously experiment with different combinations of essential oils, adjusting the ratios to achieve the desired balance. This process often requires numerous trials, as the scent can evolve dramatically with each small adjustment.
Time and Patience
Creating a natural perfume is a labor of love that requires not only skill but also a great deal of patience. From the initial concept to the final product, it can take anywhere from several months to several years to develop a fragrance that truly resonates with our vision. Each scent tells a story, and we are committed to ensuring that every element aligns harmoniously.
Our Artisan Approach
At Hangar South, we handcraft each of our perfumes in our cozy atelier located at 4695 Berri in Montreal. Our workshop is a creative sanctuary where we can focus on our craft, surrounded by the fragrances and raw materials that inspire us.
When you pass by our atelier, you may catch a glimpse of us at work, carefully mixing essential oils and other natural ingredients to create our unique fragrances. This hands-on approach not only allows us to maintain control over every aspect of production but also infuses each product with our passion and dedication.
The Importance of Design
In addition to scent formulation, we spend countless hours on the design aspect of our products. Packaging and presentation are just as important as the fragrance itself. We believe that the experience of using our products should be as delightful as the scents we create. This involves selecting sustainable materials, designing beautiful labels, and ensuring that each bottle reflects the essence of the fragrance inside.
