Why Ditching Fragrance Changed Everything for Me...
I used to have a few select perfumes that I absolutely loved. I wasn’t one to collect dozens of bottles—but the ones I did have? They were my go-to’s, worn often and tied to special memories and seasons of life. Like many women, I enjoyed having a scent that felt like me—a finishing touch before heading out the door.
But everything changed when I became a mom and began my journey toward a healthier lifestyle.
As I dug deeper into wellness and started learning what was actually in the products I was using every day, I was stunned. I discovered that most commercial perfumes are made with synthetic chemicals—many of which are known endocrine disruptors and harmful to our health. These weren’t just harmless spritzes of scent; they were silent invaders, contributing to hormone imbalances, headaches, allergies, and more.
Once I saw the truth, I couldn’t unsee it.
I made the decision to remove all synthetic fragrances from our home. I stopped using perfume altogether. At first, it felt like a sacrifice. I missed the ritual, the way scent could brighten a day or bring comfort. But my family's health came first—and I wasn’t willing to jeopardize our wellbeing for a bottle of chemicals.
For over a decade, I went without fragrance. And honestly? It was worth it.
But recently, something beautiful happened. I found Wyld Notes—a clean, plant-based fragrance line that aligns perfectly with the values I’ve held close all these years. It was like a breath of fresh air—literally. For the first time in over 10 years, I can enjoy a scent I love without compromise. I can spritz a clean fragrance and feel good about it, knowing it’s safe for my body and my children.
What would it mean to you if you were able to share these scents with your family, without worry or regret?
To me it feels like an answer to so many prayers.
