Custom Formulas
NOVA creates custom eau de parfums and colognes from the ground up. They are completely original formulas which are directed by clients' taste, specification and skin. Using fine ingredients, each blend is composed with thought and care by NOVA founder and perfumer Julia Zangrilli.
The process begins with a series of questionnaires, followed by an in-person or long distance scent evaluation. Through this process, Julia is able to work with each client to hone in on a group of unique fragrance notes best suited to them. These notes are skin-tested on the client before being selected for formulation.
A series of blends are then created and presented for continued on-skin testing. Clients then choose their favorite version for bottling. Final formulas are recorded and filed for re-order.
The full timeline for creating an original eau de parfum/cologne ranges from 2-4 months, depending on nature of formula, locale and scheduling. Refills have 1-2 week lead time depending on materials. Clients requiring any mail delivery are asked to select the shipping option at time of check-out.
Clients wishing to change their formula structure entirely - following initial pairing and formula creation - are accommodated at additional rates. Products are exchangeable only upon flaw in manufacture, as such we retain samples of each eau de parfum/cologne we manufacture. Phthalate-free.
