This fragrance is created in honor of my grandparents' love.
When my grandfather, my "Papi," was courting Abuelita, he would often remark on how thick and full her eyelashes were — -and he'd illustrate their fullness by balancing an unlit cigarette on the curve of her lashes. It would stay put.
Pestaņas is a whirlwind of memories, from my grandparents' courtship to the home they nurtured together in Illinois, including notes of cotton, tobacco leaf, rose, marigold, leather, machine oil, amber, lilac, pepper, copal, chocolate, wine and pimento.
For Mothers' Day, I'll be presenting this fragrance to Abuelita, and I'm so honored to share it with you as well.
Pestaņas has a companion fragrance, Pistolas, created in honor of my Abuelita as a lovely young lass. You can find both the fragrances as a set here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/189179590/pistolas-pestanas-handcrafted-fragrance
This listing is for one plump little 10-mL bottle of Pestaņas. Yes, those photos are of my grandparents. Aren't they stunning? :)
