Filigree & Shadow in West Seattle is truly something special. James is an incredible host warm, knowledgeable, and deeply passionate about his craft. His water-based perfumes are unlike anything I’ve ever experienced: intimate, ethereal, and emotionally powerful. I actually cried when I smelled some of them there’s so much feeling bottled in each scent. The space is beautifully curated and inviting, and the whole experience feels personal and magical. A must visit for any fragrance lover looking for something deeply original and moving.

My partner and I had such a delightful time being lead through the entire scent range experience with James! Truly a unique activity to do on your own or with a loved one - I highly recommend. I can't wait to land on my new fragrance after working my way through my personal sample set. I also love that James' line is made with natural ingredients, water-based, vegan & crulety-free, and supports the LGBTQIA+ community!

The brightest, wittiest and most well spoken perfume artisan you will find. Above and beyond classy, cool and creative products. Go for it!
