- Tania Reuben Perfumer:
Tania Reuben is a remarkable figure in the world of perfumery, celebrated for her dedication to natural and artisanal creations.
Hailing from the west coast of Canada, Reuben's diverse heritage, which includes Irish, Scottish, English, French, and rumored Asian Indian roots, has perhaps influenced her unique perspective. Her journey into the realm of natural perfumery began after the birth of her children when she embarked on a quest for a healthier, greener lifestyle. Frustrated by the lack of natural perfumes that resonated with her, she took matters into her own hands.
Reuben founded Pure Natural Diva Botanicals, a brand that has become synonymous with high - quality, natural fragrances. Her perfumes are crafted with over 85 percent organic ingredients, using a meticulous process. She formulates small, hand - made batches, incorporating natural elements such as essential oils, absolutes, minerals, and tinctures.
The brand offers a range of captivating scents. "Pure" is a green citrus fragrance, reminiscent of a favorite spa, with notes of cassie, lavender, chamomile, lemon, lime, and Egyptian neroli, creating a sensually uplifting experience like a sunny day in a lemongrass and lavender field. "Natural" is a light citrus floral, inviting one to imagine a picnic in a rose - bordered citrus grove, featuring notes of clary sage, pink grapefruit, Moroccan rose, and ylang - ylang. "Diva" is a spicy vanilla, exuding soul, sultriness, and mystery, with natural musk from ambrette seed and smooth New Caledonian sandalwood blended in a rich vanilla base. "Elixir" is a citrus vanilla, as delicious as a lingering morning with an ocean view, combining aphrodisiac vanilla, a hint of oak moss, osmanthus, and rejuvenating pink grapefruit and red mandarin.
Tania Reuben's work has not gone unnoticed. Her perfumes have been featured twice in Women's Wear Daily, and she has been lauded as a "maverick" by frangantica.com. Her commitment to natural perfumery not only offers consumers a healthier alternative in the world of scents but also enriches the landscape of American perfumery with her unique and sustainable approach.
