Armando Martinez:

"I am very passionate about what I do here. I am most surprised that when I have created a scent with some inspiration and lots of error, I create a scent that I am very pleased with. As I have read before about great perfumers in the past such as Jean Carles. Most of what the perfumers of his day which are well known classics such as Shocking de Schiaparelli, Tabu, Canoe and many others were in fact, "happy mistakes" (my own way of saying they made something that they didn't anticipate to be what they intended to be). The components that they put together just fit well and happily created a most harmonious creation.

I like to think that the scents I create fall into this sort of happenstance category. I have the best intentions of creating something from an inspiration of another great classic of perfumery. But the outcome ends up to be quite unique unto itself and totally my own, which is a blessing."
