Based in Colorado, Wit & West Perfumes is a small-batch artisanal perfumery that is solely owned and operated by myself and my husband. All of our fragrances are designed, formulated and bottled completely in-house in small batches using only the finest, high-quality 100% natural whole botanicals and naturally derived ingredients.
Wit & West Perfumes is a small-batch, artisanal brand based on a clean ingredients philosophy: All fragrances are 100% natural (no synthetics), cruelty-free, vegan, and formulated without parabens or phthalates. Additionally, the brand strives for sustainability, minimalism, and producing just enough for enjoyment without excessive waste.
Gift-giving is a thoughtful way to inspire new sustainability habits through a product or experience that has a story. In our opinion the best gifts are experiences.
Today we’d like to introduce you to Whitney Swales. Hi Whitney, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself. My name is Whitney and I am the owner and perfumer for Wit & West Perfumes.
Recently, I had the opportunity to sit down and share the Wit & West Perfumes story as well as West and my thoughts on our business, life and more with Shoutout Colorado.
