{"title":"Elizabeth and James","description":"\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eA short lived, but impactful brand of perfumery:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFounded in 2007 by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, Elizabeth and James established a \"cult-favorite\" reputation in the fragrance world through its Nirvana collection, which debuted in 2013 with the iconic \u003ci\u003eBlack\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eWhite\u003c\/i\u003e scents. The brand’s olfactory philosophy centers on \"sophisticated minimalism\" and the exploration of duality, often blending traditionally masculine notes like sandalwood, vetiver, and tobacco with feminine florals to create a chic, androgynous aesthetic. Encased in architectural, texture-heavy flacons inspired by vintage apothecary vials, the fragrances—including later hits like \u003ci\u003eBourbon\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eRose\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eFrench Grey\u003c\/i\u003e—became synonymous with a laid-back, \"boho-luxe\" Parisian style. While the line faced distribution changes moving from Sephora to Kohl’s around 2019 and was eventually largely discontinued, it remains a highly regarded \"niche-quality\" designer house among collectors who value its unique, moody compositions and impressive longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"elizabeth-and-james-nirvana-black-edp","title":"Nirvana Black EDP 2016 Batch, Women Perfume Sample","description":"\u003ch2 data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\" id=\"isPasted\"\u003eFragrance Description:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eELIZABETH AND JAMES Nirvana Black EDP, is a woody-oriental fragrance that balances dark edginess with a creamy, velvety smoothness.
