FragranTed

✨ Full Circle Moment! ✨
Tomorrow, FragranTed’s very own, Terees Western, is heading back to her alma mater, the University of Michigan, as the featured guest for the Women in Science and Engineering Residence Program Tea Time.

This homecoming is super special to Terees because it's also 313 Day! (March 13th represents Detroit's iconic 313 area code, a day celebrating the culture, community, history, and spirit of Detroit ... and you know Terees loves her city💜).

As a proud Detroiter and University of Michigan alum, Terees is delighted to be recognized as an Inspiring Detroit Woman Leader during International Women’s Month and welcomes the opportunity to pour into the next generation of brilliant women engineering students.

It’s going to be a beautiful afternoon to pause, sip some tea, and connect on Scent and STEM. 🧪✨

✨ A REMARKABLE RETURN ✨

Wow, I'm still overjoyed by the overwhelming support of 's first Perfume Pop-Up after an 18 month business pause.

Detroit FragranTe Dears - first timers and cherished customers showed up to shop our GENTEIL fragrances and write their scent stories (craft their own personal perfume) from our Fragrance Library on a cozy Saturday afternoon in December in the heart of Midtown Detroit.

We had a lovely time of connection, curiosity and community centered on smelling amazing aromatics mingled with stories of an ancestry that made me and my life joyful.

Many thanks to Janet and Alyson of for hosting us. Also, special shoutout to Rebekah FragranTed's new Creative Coordinator/Apprentice for her brilliance and assistance on her first day working with FragranTed.

When you Learn to Savor Scent, you Stir Life.💜🌿✨

Thrilled to do a Holiday Perfume Pop-Up tomorrow, Saturday, December 20, 2025 from 2-4pm.

Stop to shop or gift our GENTEIL line of organic perfume oils for sentimental souls. Or select individual fragrance notes from our fragrance library to have a special made-for-you personal perfume mixed.

And extra congratulations to Source Booksellers, they were names Publishers' Weekly's ( ) 2025 Bookstore of the Year!

Come stir you senses with good scents and good books.

It's Been A While ... FragranTed Reblooms 🌺

Juneteenth 2024 was the last post I made on 's social media and then pow-pow, the next 540 days (18 months) were the absolute toughest time of my life.

If you received FragranTed's newsletter, I shared more about my absence in our newsletter.

Good news, I am back - better than ever!✨💜

Very thankful for those of you who reached out to me via texts, DMs, phone calls and caring gestures.

I'm easing my way back into FragranTed.

Last year's challenges also impacted FragranTed digitally:
>> Our website domain extension is now fragranted.biz
>> 50% of our email subscribers addresses disappeared, gone - deleted

Kindly re-sign up to FragranTed's newsletter to stay in the know. Click link in the bio.

Today's post is a brief update. Glad to be back doing what I love -- bringing the joy of scent to the world!

Fragrantly,
Terees Western
Perfumer | Scent Docent, FragranTed
