About the Fragrance: “Not just a fragrance; it’s a statement of your inner fire and destiny. We collaborated with 400 Sephora Beauty Advisors to craft this aromatherapeutic blend of cherry, florals, and warm undertones for you to embrace your ambition and leave a trail of inspiration wherever you go.” –Barb Stegemann

The 7 Virtues was established in 2010 by activist and wellness author, Barb Stegemann. After her best friend, a CIMIC officer, was wounded while discussing how to bring clean drinking water and healthcare to families in a village in Afghanistan, she promised him in the hospital that she would take on his mission of peace. She wrote a best-selling book to empower people to reverse issues of war and poverty called “The 7 Virtues of a Philosopher Queen”—and that’s where the brand name came from. ‘MAKE PERFUME NOT WAR’ is the mantra at The 7 Virtues, and it is molded into the caps as a reminder.

The 7 Virtues believes transparency is key, so—visible through the perfume itself—you can read where the fragrance oils were sourced from and the aromatherapy wellness benefits of each perfume. Cherry Ambition’s aromatherapy benefits include feeling brave, igniting ambition and making a statement. So, to manifest your dreams, spritz on this mood-enhancing perfume while intention-setting. The 7 Virtues perfumes are made with sustainably-sourced essential oils. They use between 22-30% fragrance oils—double above industry standard—to deliver a scent that will last all day. The 7 Virtues perfumes are Leaping Bunny-certified, vegan, and both cruelty- and gluten-free. Plus, the packaging boxes are recyclable and made from FSC sustainably-harvested forests.

As part of The 7 Virtues’ partnership with Days For Girls, partial proceeds from each Cherry Ambition bottle will advance menstrual equity in North America by funding education, advocacy, and product distribution.
