And Luma. And Dinky. And, oh yes, we mustn't forget Monkey. Velvet and Sweet Pea are the two kitty perfumers who live with perfumer Laurie Stern.  Although Laurie makes perfume for people, not cats, she takes great inspiration from Velvet and Sweet Pea’s philosophy of life – living in the moment, making the most of opportunities to relax and take care of yourself, and luxuriating in only the best of everything – and their deep enjoyment of and appreciation for nature’s gifts as they frolic in the scent-drenched sunlight of the perfumery’s fragrant Perfumer’s Garden.  Luma is the company’s spokesmodel and can be seen on all our labels, Monkey is the silly kitten who inspires the MonkeyCat bath products with her relaxed and playful spirit , and Dinky, along with his pet human Gary (Laurie’s husband), inspires Laurie in her more masculine collections.  All the kitties living at the Purrfumery were rescued and brought to live at their fabulously scented new home!
Laurie takes great inspiration from her cats' philosophy of life and their deep enjoyment of nature's gifts as they frolic in the scent-drenched sunlight of the perfumery's fragrant Perfumer's Garden.

Velvet and Sweet Pea think this story is pretty funny but they want to remind you to never, never put perfume or essential oils on an animal.  It will be absorbed through their skin and can be highly toxic!  "During the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, ladies of the court circulated a recipe for perfume to be rubbed into a lap-dog's coat before it was taken on social calls.  The recipe included labdanum, ambergris, civet and musk, strong-smelling ingredients that would most certainly overpower any hint of "wet-dog" smell.  Whether the dog approved is another story."  - Scents Appeal, Gabrielle Dorland, 1993
