At 17, my journey in the world of luxury retail began when I got hired at a high-end designer boutique. Among the many beautiful items we offered, luxury fragrances were a staple. Ironically, the owner was allergic to most fragrances, so I naturally took on the role of managing this area. I became our boutique’s go-to fragrance expert, building relationships with clients who trusted my recommendations and developing a love for the power of scent.
