Soap & Paper Factory Presents: The Bella Collection

For Soap & Paper Factory, inspiration for scents in the Bella Collection {products sent for editorial consideration} came from loved ones and loved places. Bella {the scent that I was sent, ha!}, a combines Bergamot, Grapefruit and Black Pepper to create a citrus-flavored explosion with a bit of sass {which is fitting, as it was inspired by its 15 year old namesake}. The scent Midnight uses Jasmine, Tuberose and Citrus aromas. Finally, Close, a grounded and well-balanced scent features Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Oakmoss.
