Jackie Zykan - Capturing Moments In Time
Share
One characteristic common among whiskey women is a curious spirit paired with a fearlessness that allows them to follow the threads of their curiosity. This is especially true with Jackie Zykan, Former Master Taster for Old Forester, Partner in Hidden Barn Whiskey, Professional Whiskey Blender, Profiled Participant in "Bourbon Belles and Whiskey Women" and now Independent Perfumer.
Her new perfume line, ODUOAK, was inspired by experiences she has had with a glass of bourbon in her hand...sitting by a campfire, walking through nature barefoot, "drunk on creek water" and nature. Her Indigo Child scent is described as being reminiscent of dark iris and spice while giving us permission to experience our intoxicating and wild side. There is affirmation in the website descriptions for her scents and I LOVE that Indigo Child is described as smelling like: "Realizing your weirdness is not only a gift but a super power. If you were a tarot card, you’d be THE WORLD."
Congrats Jackie! We are grateful for the journeys that your curiosity continues to take you on, for your fearlessness in chasing those threads of curiosity, and for taking us along for the ride.
