Featured Product: ‘The Smell of Christmas’ Story
Aromatique, The Creator of Decorative Fragrance®, is situated in the foothills of the Ozark Mountains. It is born from a single inspired idea of Aromatique’s founder, Patti Upton. In its purest form, Patti’s vision was combining the senses of sight and smell to make great fragrances beautiful. This idea not only gave birth to Patti’s first product, The Smell of Christmas®, and to her company, Aromatique, Inc.®, but also to an entirely new industry. It can be argued that the vast majority of all home fragrance brands in existence today are tied to Aromatique, a brand respected throughout the industry and sought after by some of the finest retailers in the world.
