‘When someone wants to choose a fragrance…their fragrance, they seek quiet, attention, something close to contemplation. They imagine a secret ceremony, a revelation, mystery.’ - CHANEL
This is exactly how I feel when attempting to choose an item from an enticing and lengthy menu.
Last night at Holt Renfrew’s launch of CHANEL in Vancouver, however, decisions regarding food and fragrances were simple and perfect:
Opus' Osaka Fruit Sushi with Shiitake mushrooms, avocado, mango & berries, citrus jelly, soy simple syrup

The CHANEL Fragrance teams, headed by perfumer Christopher Sheldrake, have created a unique and private setting for customers: a true olfactory haven where customers will experience a personal session with a fragrance expert to discover their ideal scent.

‘We’ve all had times when we’ve not dressed particularly well, then put on our fragrance and immediately felt more confident, even elegant,’ Sheldrake says. The same can be said to the consumption of a gourmet meal.

Hi Erin, another great article and fun event! You have an amazing job and you are perfect for it. I have been watching your FMA show, I tape it now. It’s great! By the way, I love that pink dress you are wearing, I hope you got to keep it lol.
By any chance do you know any divorced or ex common law women that would like to be a part of my inspiring Web Series: “The Ex-housewives Of Vancouver.” I have 8 episodes already uploaded but I would like to have 13. I want to pitch it as a reality show here! My youngest housewife is 27 and my oldest is 50. If you know anyone who would like to be a part of this, I would really appreciate it. You know so many people in town and thought you might know someone who has a great story. Thanks tons Erin and keep doing what you do, you are an inspiration to women.
hugs xo Susan
