OUR STORY
The textbook definition to be iconic means to be widely recognised, admired, and influential in a particular field or context. However, an iconic person, object, or idea is often considered a symbol or representation of something significant or memorable. Iconic figures or things have a lasting impact and are often associated with specific qualities, achievements, or cultural significance. They can inspire and shape trends, beliefs, and behaviour’s, leaving a lasting legacy in their respective domains.
Blackstone Maverick is a brand that aims to push and break through the walls of the norm, aims to shed light on what it means to be Iconic and be confident in it. Being an everyday person and still being iconic is a remarkable achievement that transcends fame and notoriety. It means embodying qualities and values that inspire and resonate with others, regardless of social status or public recognition. To be an iconic everyday person is to have a profound impact on those around you through your actions, character, and the way you navigate the world.
“Tell Us Your Story” doesn’t necessarily mean to physically tell but rather to walk into or step into what you’ve come through/ are going through already. The Brand aims to help you exude what defines you, giving confidence and trust in who you are as an individual, pulling apart and breaking chains in getting you to feel good, smell good and this in turn benefits your entire appearance. We take the definition of what it means to be Iconic through an adjective scope, namely, “Widely considered to epitomise an era, culture, community and place” in essence to be “Celebrated” despite the obvious “new normalcy” which has been chosen for us rather than us choosing it ourselves.
Being iconic as an everyday person is about embracing authenticity and staying true to oneself. It means living by your own principles and values, even when faced with challenges or societal pressures. By being unapologetically yourself, you inspire others to do the same and create a ripple effect of individuality and self-expression.
Ultimately, being an iconic everyday person is about leaving a lasting legacy through your actions, words, and the way you impact the lives of those around you. It’s about being a source of inspiration, a role model, and a catalyst for positive change. Whether it’s within your family, community, or workplace, your authenticity, kindness, and unwavering commitment to personal growth make you an icon in your own right.
And that’s where the perfume brand comes in. It’s not just about the fragrance in the bottle, but the confidence it instils in you. When you wear a perfume that epitomises who you are, it becomes a symbol of your identity and a reminder of your unique essence. It becomes a tool that empowers you to walk into any situation with confidence, grace, and authenticity.
