PINROSE

PINROSE is a perfume service that subscribes to the try-before-you-buy model. Potential purchasers take a personality test where based upon one's answers and an algorithm, they are matched up with and shipped a few samples that are hopefully to their liking. 

The founders, two FEMALE Stanford grads, concoct these fragrances themselves. Pretty impressive, eh? Currently, PINROSE has 10 scents available for purchase, at $50 a bottle--a price that doesn't break the bank!

After working my way through their 'petal pack' (includes all 10 scents), I have discovered my new "go-to"; Merry Maker. Find yours NOW!

BONUS: no phthalates - no parabens.
