Welcome to the twenty-first issue of Black Girl Perfume Club! Let’s dive right in.
Hey, y’all! I’m cordially inviting you to Black Girl Perfume Club’s inaugural meetup in sunny California on September 6 from 5-7pm!
I’ve partnered with Scent Bar DTLA (owned by the amazing folks at Luckyscent) to host a small group of fragrance lovers for drinks, light bites, and a night of fragrance sampling and knowledge. Attendees will also receive a free gift with any purchase courtesy of Scent Bar.
To my VIPs, a.k.a. Paid Subscribers, you’ll receive a free swag bag with items sponsored by a variety of Black-owned brands including Mischo Beauty, SK+NMuse, Rif Care, and more. To RSVP, go to our Eventbrite page to cop a ticket. Space is limited so register fast!
