Elizabeth W. San Francisco
Elizabeth Wightman was Albert Nichols great grand-mother. She founded a ranch in the Sierra Nevadas in the 1800's, when neither grace nor style were required or desired. Her spirit of determination and independence went hand in hand with her romantic nature and classic elegance. She was his obvious inspiration for Elizabeth W.
Scent is a potent reminder of our past. Albert's strongest memories are the scents of summer as a kid on Elizabeth's ranch. Violets, roses, lilacs, and magnolias surrounded the house, while inside, the kitchen was filled with freshly picked lavender, rosemary, and sage. Fragrance enveloped me and became my fascination. Before launching into the rarefied air of the perfume world, he was an architect. In 1995, Albert devoted himself to his true passion and created a perfumery.
Albert knew how to design a building and constructing fragrances follows similar lines: a well balanced foundation is required to support the heart and top notes. As with architecture, he also knew there were fragrances for the masses and perfumes that speak to the individual. From the exterior design of a product to the scent inside, he seeks to touch the individual with his elizabethW collections. They are clean, simple, sophisticated, elegant, and totally original. They reflect an emphasis on quality and beauty, valuable lessons passed down through the generations from Elizabeth Wightman, his great grandmother.
