Peach’s Revenge may well have been a prophetic name. When we launched this new fragrance by nose Chris Maurice at Esxence earlier this year, we were truly astounded at the response. We were thrilled that it proved such a big instant hit—and we still are.
However, for an independent perfume house like ours, it's been a steep learning curve. As orders flood in, we rush to fulfill them. But, they have not stopped coming. Most of our retailers’ restocks sell out within days. Direct orders through our online shop are flooding in. We have been working very hard to supply new batches of Peach’s Revenge to keep up with demand.
We've been continuously sold out of this showstopper since its launch less than three months ago. With a new release, it’s not unusual for there to be a spike in demand. But the demand for Peach’s Revenge has truly astonished us, not least of all orders from new markets.
Even when we quadrupled our typical order quantity from our oil compounding house in Barcelona, we already had to order MORE by the time the oil arrived because it was clear that we would sell out again, just as it is again as we receive a new batch of oils.
We are very grateful to all of you out there who want this fragrance and thank you for your patience in bearing with us. All our fragrances are bottled and packaged by hand in our London studio. And, before we can even do that, we have to wait for the pure oil to be carefully compounded in Barcelona, then shipped to the UK, going through various import bureaucracy, before we can actually get to diluting, macerating and bottling, only the first stage of getting your orders together. Furthermore, we absolutely insist that all of our fragrances macerate properly before we bottle them. For anyone who doesn’t know what this means, it basically means allowing the fragrance to properly rest for weeks before it’s ready for use, perfume’s equivalent of aging good wine or whisky.
The Good News
However, a new batch of Peach’s Revenge is currently macerating, which we will soon be bottling and shipping. We’d like to say that we now have enough to keep up with all the orders. But, our experience of Peach’s Revenge is “never say never”. So, we would strongly advise that the sooner you order, the sooner you’ll receive yours. We will be shipping in the order in which purchases are made.
Once again, we thank you for your support and understanding that it’s been no mean feat to ensure all those who want it can have it as soon as humanly possible.
