Personality never goes out of style, they say.

Unique pieces to last and to love, made by You.
A Scented Nose Job
Do you want it to smell like teen spirit to match your favorite cousin’s grunge personality? The choice is yours when you customize your own perfume to gift a loved one. At Collect & Bottle, your nose will get to botanizing in 80 carefully selected ingredients, everything from natural ingredients like bergamot, jasmine, and patchouli to synthetic classics like Hedione and Iso E Super.

When you have finished scenting, a unique recipe is formulated and a bottle of 30 ml Personalized Eau de Parfum accompanies you home and the recipe is archived. Sounds great minus the effort? Don’t worry, instead just buy a gift card and the receiver will get to do the smelly, dirty job herself.
The studio and perfume laboratory of Collect & Bottle.

Getting the envelopes and matching letters from Smythson and having them personalized with your loved one’s name – or both of your names together – is for sure as sweet as the like icing on the cake.
