INTRODUCING BLOOMING CHAOS

Seeing the world through scent

As a creatively-run, fragrance and body care company of one from Toronto, the founder's fingerprints are on every level of making from conception to formulation to design and marketing. Everything is produced in-house. Also available are guides and articles that explore a creative, refreshing, slower-paced lifestyle for everyday moments and adventures within our own personal environment and the outside world too.

Uniting 100 per cent naturally formulated personal care for clean and nourished skin, with the traditions of natural perfumery so we smell remarkable. Perfumes distinctive to the wearer. Room sprays to enhance our spaces. Blooming Chaos is led by Giuseppe de Caria and guided by accomplished and eccentric spirits of all stripes. We've taken our name and inspiration from the writings of the late poet of science Oliver Sacks on creativity and the brain.

INTRODUCING GIUSEPPE DE CARIA, FOUNDER

For some, making fragrance and body care is more of a science –– a method, I've always seen it more as an art –– intuition. I am self-taught and presently work alone, almost like an artist (for form and feeling) or an architect (for form and function). That feeling pulls me to constantly pursue connection, to nature, to the human experience, expressing vulnerability at the core of my work. That function gets distilled and manifests in simple yet nuanced formulations, then presented in straight forward packaging that's not trying to seduce you. Amber glass bottles were chosen because its beauty comes from its utility, protecting the natural formulas, plus they're refillable, reusable, endless recyclability with no loss in quality and purity, and available in small quantities for a small business. And being someone who is constantly in wonder and question of my own thoughts and experiences, this also shows up in my work, and why I write about what I feel and notice and those feelings and noticings are occasionally shared via our newsletter. Ceremonial Escapades was written as a complementary guide for the Habitual Love range, for a somatic and emotional experience alone or with a partner. Along with that are two more guides to complement our range of personal care and to accompany our days and nights –– Aching Beauty and Divine Haliburton. With print versions coming one day.
