ABOUT THE PERFUMER
Holladay Penick Saltz grew up outside Jackson, Mississippi. She graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design and went on to study fashion and material culture at Parsons and The New School before becoming an academic researcher at the Institute of Play, the Institute for the Future of the Book, and later a visiting scholar at New York University. A chance reading of Diane Ackerman's A Natural History of the Senses reawakened her lifelong fascination with the sense of smell, and she decided to dedicate herself to exploring the ancient, storied history of fragrance and fragrant raw materials. After years of study in the process of formulation and production she was able to train with Le Labo Fragrances in New York City and went on to found Apoteker Tepe in 2014

APOTEKER TEKE REVIVAL PROJECT NOTE
Apoteker Tepe operated under the care and creative direction of Holladay from 2014-2018 before she went on to pursue new projects. In 2022, the line was purchased by me, Nick Nilsson, a devoted fan who wished to return these masterful perfumes to production as well as hoard the largest collection of The Holy Mountain in the world. Working in conjuction with Holladay we are pleased to once more present the Apoteker Tepe collection.
