What is Concrete Parfum? Melange Concrete Parfum are small containers of fragrance in solid form. They are prepared and poured in small batches, using Melange fine fragrances, jojoba oil and pure beeswax.

Talking Makeup tried and loved Melange Apothecary Concrete Parfum in Poire & Casis: The inspired blending of Casis Noir, the fragrant berries of the the black currant and Poire, a rich Asian pear. Reminiscent of fine wine with fruit notes. SRP: $10.

After chatting with the fabulous Densie Estrada, owner and founder of Melange Apothecary in Sherman Oaks California, she was kind enough to create a custom blend perfume just for Marta Walsh. Parfum Concentrate in .35 ounce roller: Note marine with ozone top notes, rose and spicy carnation; blended with Nenuphar, a light waterlily and white tea leaves with notes of freesia and rose. It feel so special to have a perfume made just for you, it is the ultimate definition of a ’signature scent’.

We would like to thank Denise Estrada of Melange Apothecary for taking the time to speak to us, and giving us an insight to her perfume blending world.
