24.01.2022 Perfume is like a window to the soul, Janelle Donnelly from Metascent. Brand new episode Monday the 31st of August 9PM on C31 Melbourne and Geelong

23.01.2022 Happy 2nd Anniversary Metascent!!! It has been exactly 2 years ago when acclaimed perfumers Janelle Donnelly and Yen Huynh believed that consumers deserve to be part of the artistic process intrinsic to creating the scent that tells ones story. In 2017, they founded Metascent Australia perfume studio and Retail boutique with the simple idea of bringing the craftsmanship back into perfume making. The MetaScent process connects you with the bespoke perfume design journey so ...that you can accentuate your own personal brand. In essence, MetaScent gives those with discerning taste access to both niche artisan fragrances and the opportunity to create your own scent. In celebration of our 2nd anniversary, we want to take this moment to thank you for all support and loyalty and we look forward to welcome you all back in store soon...Heres to many more years to come. Love MetaScent

23.01.2022 Introducing Light a luminous scent of femininity that captures a spring garden in full bloom and the happiness it brings as does the first day of Spring. It celebrates innocence and pure beauty that radiates from the heart. Sparkling and Delightful, this fruity floral embraces top notes of bergamot and mandarin that uplift the senses. A floral heart of rose, jasmine and lilac form a delicate and feminine blossom character. The touch of vanilla sweetness and playful fruity notes convey a carefree and joyous woman in a pink dress. Light is the quintessential Spring-time fragrance that is bursting with life.

22.01.2022 Who says that tobacco doesnt have something sweet to offer - in an aromatic sense that is. Introducing MetaScent Cay, this rich woody scent has notes of Oud sweetened tobacco and leather exult in their seductive charm. Sensual and gregarious, with a magical addition of Vanilla, this luxuriously suede like perfume is the perfect balance between masculine and feminine and is our go-to winter fragrance.

After months of extreme temperatures leaving us with dry and itchy skin, get ready to get your glow back and reveal your softest, smoothest and most supple skin yet with our ultra luxe scented body oils. Infused with the delicate spring time florals and earthy scents of Neroli, Jasmine and Sandalwood, this lightweight & fast absorbing body oil is the ultimate multitasker and can double as your go to signature perfume or revive dull dry skin and hair as bath and hair oil. Grab a bottle today, your skin will thank you.

21.01.2022 Thank you and Happy New Year from our Co-Founder Janelle Donnelly Dear MetaScent friends, What a crazy, exhilarating, nerve racking roller coaster of a year!! COVID-19 certainly put us through our paces, but I concede we are better for it. So we are starting 2021 full of pride in the MetaScent brand and feel a great sense of optimism for the future. We learned in 2020 that customers are more interested in unique fragrances than ever before. We improved our product offering, r...eached a wider audience and improved our online presence. More and more people regard fragrance as an extension of their personality, style and aspirations and there is far less interest in traditional signature scents. If a beautiful scent featuring Jasmin Sambac or Bulgarian Rose brought you a little joy to your day, then we are so proud to have made these products for you. My co-Founder Yen and I have turned our attention to things that inspire us, so we have created a beautiful collection of fine floral fragrances which have just launched. Glorious florals of magnolia, camélia, tuberose and fleur de lune are included in this new collection. I would like to thank our beautiful customers we met in 2020 who visited us online and at our studio to make their own perfume. It has been such a joy to share your delight and enthusiasm for perfume making and creating something just for you. Wishing you all a prosperous 2021! Janelle Donnelly
