ABOUT

The Perfumed Plume Awards™ for Fragrance Journalism is a new and independent recognition of creative storytelling that enlightens, engages and educates the consumer on the art and craft of fragrance.

Conceived and spearheaded by experienced fragrance industry insiders Mary Ellen Lapsansky and Lyn Leigh, the Perfumed Plume Awards™ specifically targets the many talented writers and visualists who bring to life the craft, the inspiration, the emotion and the sensory journey that is at the heart of fragrance creation, quickly becoming an annual, iconic symbol of media excellence and a new way to create a broader awareness & appreciation for fragrance through high quality, informative, enlightening and of course entertaining storytelling.
