Masik Collegiate Fragrances was founded by CEO, Katie Masik, in 2008. Katie was fascinated by the scientific link between scent, memory and emotion.  She got to thinking about her own memorable life experience, in particular, her college experience at Bucknell University.

  My fragrance idea was simple – to create different signature scent men’s and women’s fragrances for universities – a celebration of college and a unique way for alumni and fans to show school spirit.  However, I didn’t want to put just any fragrance in a bottle and call it the school’s official scent.  Who was I to make that call?  Instead, I wanted the scents to be special and inspired by elements such as school colors, campus style, flowers and trees, traditions and location.  I also thought it was important for the schools to be involved in the process – from the initial fragrance inspiration brief, to smelling the custom scents and selecting their favorite ones. – Katie Masik

Right now fragrances are available for the following schools, with plans to add many more in the near future:

  • University of Alabama
  • University of Arkansas
  • Auburn University
  • Clemson University
  • University of Floridamasik lineup

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERAI was sent both mens and womans fragrance for Syracuse University as well as a womans fragrance for the University of Oklahoma for review purposes. Since we live fairly close to Syracuse I was eager to see what the perfume smelled like.

Syracuse Inspiration WheelSyracuse Fragrance Notes

I absolutely love the Syracuse womens fragrance!  Its hard to capture the scent of ice & snow, yet this perfume manages to capture it.  It is crisp, yet has the soft floral middle tones.

The Syracuse mens fragrance is also amazing.  It is a very masculine scent, without being too overpowering.

Next up was the University of Oklahoma Perfume.

Oaklahoma

 

This perfume smells much softer than the Syracuse one, yet just as beautiful.  It is flowery without being overkill, the vanilla and patchouli base balance it quite well.

    Woohoo! Thanks for the S.U. review – glad to hear that it smells good. I saw in the paper that there was a fragrance for the school. I live in Syracuse, and got my master’s degree there.

    So I doubt they will ever make my tiny little college but I love this idea. Our state school would make for an awesome fragrance.

    I never heard of this before and to be honest I thought it was a joke, I couldn’t imagine anyone wanting to smell like Beer, Barf and Bong Water!! 🙂
