The Film

Watch the award winning documentary on our story, Perfume War that won best Humanitarian Film at the Sedona Film Festival and countless awards from Audience Choice to Best Documentary across Canada and the USA.

Her fragrance brand, The 7 Virtues—handpicked for Sephora’s new transparency-minded hub, Clean—sources fair-trade raw materials from farmers in economically depressed areas: vetiver from Haiti, patchouli from Rwanda. ‘Make perfume not war,’ goes the tagline, and with orange blossom supplied by former poppy growers in Afghanistan, it rings true.
