A NOTE TO OUR READERS:
"Aromatique of Arkansas" is from the November 2002 issue of Southern Living. Because prices, dates, and other specifics are subject to change, please check all information to make sure it's still current before making your travel plans.
When celebrities Cher and Dionne Warwick want to indulge in bath oil bliss, they
call on Arkansas' Aromatique in Heber Springs. Even First Ladies Nancy Reagan,
Barbara Bush, and Hillary Rodham Clinton primp with the products occasionally.
Lucky for them (and their drivers), they don't actually have to travel to the
Natural State to purchase these aromatic wonders. The favored line is sold in
retail shops and department stores across the country as well as in the
company's own showroom and boutique, Panache-The Aromatique Gallery. (Their only
other boutique is in London.)
A melting pot of blossoming aromas and perfumed products, Panache abounds with
whimsical surprises. Visitors walk among shelves of scented candles, soaps,
fragrances, room sprays, oils, and a host of other herbal elixirs for the home
and body. These items come in a variety of floral and fruit scents such as
kiwi-pear, apricot-mint, gardenia, and rose. For those searching for the right
fragrance to light up the holidays, Panache is the place to find it.
