ABOUT CELIE & COUCH, A SCENT SHOP
What My Niche Scents Are About
Affirming and reconnecting different walks of life through scent- not selling exclusion or division. These genderless, handmade, small-batch perfumes last longer, wear widely, and reveal the often overlooked beauty within our cultural melting pot.
​When and Where the Idea for My Niche Perfumery Came About
'The Color Purple' and 'Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Café'. CELIE & COUCH is a portmanteau of the main protagonists' names.
With so much shame and helplessness in the world, whenever I feel devalued or alone I can always find my strength again in these pages.
The recipes and handmade crafts in these books inspired me to get crafty myself, so I started developing the perfumes and brand in 2016.
Just as CELIE Johnson & Evelyn COUCH learned in the books, I want my perfumes to remind you that your strength and value are inherent.
​Why and How I Make Indie Perfume
​We're often shamed for being who we are, or shaming out of fear.
So I build scents around misread ingredients and phenomena, paired in weird and wearable ways to remind others of their beauty.

Scents about community should be for the community. I cater to a range of budgets. My scents are EDPs, longer-lasting than high street EDTs.
By hand from blend to box, enjoy.
