 Are you seeking a last minute fragrance change from the usual? You are invited to an elegant Thanksgiving Day dinner or those upcoming Holiday ballets such as the  NUTCRACKER SUITE performed by the Joffrey Ballet company in Chicago?

  GRACIELLA pays homage to actress and Princess Grace Kelly with some of the most lush notes that fit just right for this time of the year.

  GRACIELLA is ripened with fruit and flowers from around the world. This is only befitting because Grace Kelly had fans that reached a global capacity.

  Middle Notes: Casablanca Lily, Ylang Ylang from Comoros Island, Karma Fleur, Rose de Mai.

  What would the holidays be without Champagne! Have you heard of the house of Armand de Brignac? There is a very interesting story behind the launch of this champagne house. No, it was not launched by a brilliant multi-millionaire French heir. No, it was not launched by a world famous actor or actress. No, it was not launched by a founder and owner of a niche perfumery. Yes and believe it or not, it was launched by Jay-Z, the mult-millionaire and multi-platinum  recording artist of the Hip-Hop persuasion aka "Sean Carter", Beyonce's husband and a father-to-be.

  Jay-Z came from humble beginnings. He was raised in the housing projects in Philadelphia but his talent and love for music with a unique way of communicating the meaning of life from where he has been to where he has arrived.
 
 The acclaimed Armand de Brignac Brut Gold is the flagship wine that is RATED THE NO.1 CHAMPAGNE IN THE WORLD by the world's most respected wine critics and sommeliers.

 Armand de Brignac is a Prestige Cuvee is produced in traditional and in the old-word style.

 According to the house of Armand de Brignac... "Armand de Brignac has a sumptous racy fruit character that is perfectly integrated with wine's subtle briche accents and the texture is deliciously creamy, with great depth paired woth a long silky finish".


Jay-Z & Beyonce
  Jay-Z is known in the fashion industry of having  grand ideas that are elegant and suitable for the all occasions. The Armand de Brignac bottles are layered in gold-plated magnificence and lined in black velvet and embossed with the brand's royal golden crest.

 This is truly a feast for the eyes and it comes in other flavors such as Rose' and Blanc de Blancs.

  I have spoken to many people who always have a reason(s) why they wanted to launch a business due to an incident(s) that have occured in their lives. Jay-Z had this same experience when the champagne house of Louis Roedener, the makers of Cristal supposedly made a racial slur toward the hip-hop industry.

  If you ever looked at a video from the top of the line hip-hop artist, they for the most part always have  Cristal featured as the official champagne of luxury. However, for Jay-Z that stopped when he officially boycott the use of Louis Roederer products in his videos and personal choice of champagne for celebrations.

 Jay-Z took his message and dream to French champagne house of Jean-Jacques Cattier, a small winemaking company with a staff of just eight craftspeople on a family estate who listened closely to his dream in creating a champagne. Cattier succeded in not only in Jay-Z's expectations but the expections of other French champagne houses in the region.

 So, I would image that Jay-Z has a lot to be thankful on this Thanksgiving Day. The moral of this story is always be stay in tune with your passions, never let anyone destroy your dreams and most importantly keep good people in your lives. Be always be open to adding more good people to enhance your life and give you good advice when needed.

The word "belles lettres" is a French phrase meaning "beautiful or "fine writing. Since this is a term to describe a category of writing, this will pertain to my passion about fragrances. I will review niche,natural, artisan and designer perfumes from all over the world. I write with passion but will use my journalistic skills that I obtained in college. Not only will I feature fragrances but I will feature new books on fragrances/perfumes, fragrance events and interview authors and perfumers.


I hope you take this journey with me and begin your own passion for the ART OF PERFUMERY!
