Congratulations to all The Jasmine Awards finalists (and a small dance round the office)

This morning the shortlist for The Jasmine Awards – the fragrance world’s coveted literary and visual awards – was published. We’d like to congratulate all the shortlisted finalists, below – but you’ll also hear a little ‘whoop’: our beautiful downloadable magazine, The Scented Letter, has been shortlisted in ‘Best Digital Experience’ category. Not once, but twice, for Issue 1 (which focused on lily of the valley), and Issue 4 (‘It’s All About The Bottle’).

We’d like to thank all our wonderful contributors, the team at The Perfume Society and especially the talented Jenny Semple, our designer, for helping The Scented Letter to make its mark in such a short time. It is, of course, one of the key benefits of belonging to The Perfume Society – and if you’d like to sign up, do it here).

Below, that list in full – and we’ll let you know the judges’ final verdicts on 18th March…!
