Who handcrafts our fragrances?

Ellen Walsh has been perfuming as a hobby since she was a child, when she received a “make your own” scent kit for her eighth birthday. She even still has some of the perfumes she made back then!

As she grew older and geekier and fell in love with some of her favorite fandoms, she combined her two passions by blending scents inspired by pop culture, and inspired by some of the characters she admired – first for herself, then as gifts for friends and family, and finally she took the plunge and launched Elden Fragrances as a sole proprietorship in 2017.

With the support and assistance of her partner James, she handles everything from the perfume development itself, to production and shipping, to site maintenance and social media management, and everything else that goes into running a small crafting business (she’s writing this paragraph in third person, too!).

Elden Fragrances is a cottage industry conducted out of Ellen’s home in central North Carolina.

Keep up with our important announcements, giddy fangirling, and cheesy memes on social media at Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

You can also find our pop culture fragrances at conventions, craft fairs, and fan events in the Raleigh area and across the East Coast.
