Katie, founder of Notes of Self, holding a custom fragrance at the fragrance bar

Meet the founder

Hi, I’m Katie—the heart behind Notes of Self.

I’ve always loved experiences that feel unique, personal and full of connection. The first time I created my own fragrance, I fell in love with more than the finished scent. I loved the conversation, creativity and fun that happened while making something that felt completely mine. I went back a second time just to study the experience more closely, and I knew I wanted to create my own version to bring home to Clanton and the surrounding communities.

I also wanted Notes of Self to reflect my belief in a cleaner, more mindful approach to fragrance. I care about creating a healthy environment and being thoughtful about what we bring into our spaces and wear on our skin. That’s why I chose my fragrance options carefully and prioritize ingredient transparency whenever it is available.

Notes of Self is my way of bringing people together to laugh, connect and create something that could belong to no one else. Because your fragrance should feel like you—not everyone else.

— Katie, Founder
