Jane Hendler - Founder of Ajne
Jane began her love affair with rare and precious scent as a child playing in front of aromatic lilacs on warm summer evenings.
Fragrance captured her imagination and drew her to the world of beauty. While working as Vice President for a beauty product company, she was captivated by the properties of natural ingredients, but saw first-hand the corporate practice of "compounding," the diluting of natural formulas with synthetic chemicals. And with that, her life's work became clear. Inspired to pursue her passion, she literally followed her nose on a 12 year quest to study both on her own and with the great masters of distillation and blending. Today, Jane is a Certified Master Essential Oil Therapist and Herbalist, lending unique insights to her creativity.
Yet, Jane's skill goes far beyond her training. She knew intuitively that rare and precious oils could be transformed into breathtakingly elegant, sophisticated fragrances. Today, Jane is recognized as a gifted perfumeur. She and her husband Rex blend ancient alchemy with the latest technology to grow, source and distill the world's rarest plant oils into the finest, safest and entirely natural custom parfum, skin care, body care and ambient fragrancing.
