Tenth Muse, Cassandra's Fragrance, formulated by

Mary Jo Howell

Mary Jo paints with fragrance in a way that is difficult to describe with words. The olfactory senses are the fastest link to our memories and deepest feelings.

Cassandra of Troy is the muse for this perfume and the contemporary person for whom it is made. Known for great beauty and the ability to foresee the future, Cassandra was cursed by the vengeful Apollo so that no one would believe her prophecies. I have reimagined what it might be like for Cassandra to retain her power in a confident, humble, compassionate, and truthful way. This fragrance is the result.
