Hi gang! You all probably know that I am a HUGE fan of Jordan L. Hawk’s Whyborne & Griffin series. It is one of my all-time favorites. So I was super intrigued when I saw that a local perfumer, FSMQ Fragrances, had developed scents inspired by the main characters. I reached out to the company and they generously agreed to offer up a giveaway to our Joyfully Jay readers.
Here is more about the scents from FSMQ: Whyborne combines the best marine notes with a spicy oriental base. Primary notes are ambergris, seabreeze, agarwood, sea salt, rose, ginger, pepper and labdanum. Mysterious, strong and sensual, Griffin opens with the seductive scent of sandalwood. Heady bergamot and rich leather combine with vegan interpretations of period-authentic musks for a Victorian sensibility.
The company also offers other scents inspired by literary characters. You can find them at FSMQFragrances.com.

Thanks for the chance!!
What a fantastic giveaway. Would love to win!
Ooooooh, comment! ?
I am not much for scents but these are a Must Have! Fingers crossed and good luck to all!
I love this series.
Love this!
This series changed me forever. How is it possible to relate so much to both characters? From the first sentence, I felt like I was home.
Yes! I get emotional every time I even think of this series!
I think having the sent of Wybourne on me while reading the books would be awesome!
I love this series so much! So excited these scents were made.
I’m intrigued to see what these actually smell like in person. Descriptions of scents only help so much xD
I’m such a huge fan of these books. They are an all time favorite series. The scents sound amazing,too!
What better to scent a library than through literary themed smells?
I am so excited about these! Thank you!
For what it’s worth, I bought both bottles (part of my Christmas presents to me was the decision to buy 5 new bottles of cologne, which included these). They’re marvelous scents, and last well. Although I prefer Whyborne to Griffin (scent-wise). And for context…yep, Eric is a guy. *g* Just my USD .02.
These scents are AMAZING! They are exactly what I imagine Whyborne and Griffin to be. Highly recommend. I love, love, love these two men!!
I’ve read ‘Widdershins (Whyborne & Griffin, #1) and loved it!
Jordan creates characters that make you care about their future together and plots that drag you deep into the night…not caring if you get enough sleep or not!
Anyone who is lucky enough to win can count themselves lucky! I’m hoping it’s me!
Love the series. Would love to win. Thanks for the opportunity!
I’m really curious about what they smell like. I really love the series and still re-read it and/or listen to it from time to time.
I love this series but I missed the last few. Thanks for the chance.
I thought this was the coolest idea when Jordan told her newsletter folks – now I need to go check out the other options. And agree – this is one of my favorite series ever -would love to check out the fragrances
I would love to win the scents. I absolutely love the series, and am gifting Mom the first book for Christmas.
Thanks for the chance. I love this series.
This is the coolest thing (and I love bergamot)!
