Fabienne Christenson is devoted to making the most creative, beautiful and unique perfumes possible. She has two lines: Possets Classic Perfumes and Possets Natural Perfumes (made from 100% natural ingredients). Possets has grown from a kitchen table enterprise to a global perfume e-tailer in the niche fragrances market.
Fabienne has proven to be immensely creative in perfuming, introducing such innovations as Cambienne (a perfume which changes with the seasons), seasonal limited edition blends, blends which create a portrait of neighborhoods & landmarks in Cincinnati, the totally separate Naturals line (100% natural ingredients only and as organic as they can possibly be), and much more. Visit her website and see for yourself. Sample collections are a fun and inexpensive way to introduce yourself to Possets.
Fabienne opens Possets to the public at the Pendleton Art Center (studio is 804B on the eighth floor) on many Final Fridays of the year, Possets can be found at Bigg's Supermarkets in Hyde Park, Mason, and Beechmont Avenue, and on the internet at Magical Omaha, as well as the main Possets website, too.
Possets website is www.possets.com.
Fabienne has quit painting but keeps some of her works as decorations for the perfume studio, none of those paintings is for sale but many of them show up as ajuncts to the perfumes now and function as labels! Also, Fabienne's extensive knowledge of art history has become a huge focal point of the website and the feel of Possets. Fabienne does have shows of her various personal projects from time to time in her studio in addition to exhibitions of her perfumes.
