i am endlessly impressed and my heart is warmed by the wonderful customers that come into take heart. i love hearing what creative endeavors you are up to, getting to know you and having my day made brighter meeting new and wonderful people.

one couple that comes into the shop are true gems. the woman sent me some images of items she has bought from take heart and how she has them displayed in her home. they have a gift and i thought i would share some of the photos...

LURK perfume...

we are happy to now be carrying LURK perfume.

i found LURK on my long hunt for rose and sandalwood perfume, which is one of my favorite scent combinations.

LURK perfumes are organic and handcrafted in new york with love.

we are carrying the following scents:

RSW005 - Warm sandalwood and earthy rose produce this androgenous scent. Smooth with a crisp citrus finish.

PRJV1 - Expansive layers of jasmine and rose intertwine with fresh petitgrain. 

AS01 - Notes of cedarwood, tuberose and sweet rose come together with a hint of spice to produce this slightly viscous yet subtle scent. 

BS003 - Dry woods mix with crisp citrus notes and sweet bergamot to produce this effervescent yet balanced fragrance. 

TBP V1 - Sultry florals blend seamlessly into a base of resinous black pepper. An antidote for the fragrance jaded.
