Deep Into The Well: Ellis Brooklyn

In this week's deep dive, we're getting into Ellis Brooklyn, the clean luxury fragrance brand founder Bee Shapiro built while pregnant and searching for a non-toxic scent she could actually trust. We walk through the full lineup, from gourmands like Queens Caramel and Bee to tropical favorites like Isla Sirena and Miami Nectar, and dig into our thoughts on "clean beauty," is it a real standard or mostly a marketing ploy? Then we get into the accessible packaging, specifically the magnetic cap on every full-size bottle. Reviewers rave about it, and it's easy to see why: no threading to align and no fumbling, just a satisfying snap-close that happens to work beautifully for anyone with limited hand mobility or grip strength. We're calling it what it is: an accidentally accessible win. We talk about what it means when a brand stumbles into inclusive design without ever naming it, and what they're leaving on the table by staying quiet about it. Listen now and start seeing beauty differently. Heads up: Some of the links below are affiliate links. If you shop through them, we may earn a small commission (at no cost to you).

In this week's deep dive, we're getting into Ellis Brooklyn, the clean luxury fragrance brand founder Bee Shapiro built while pregnant and searching for a non-toxic scent she could actually trust. We walk through the full lineup, from gourmands like Queens Caramel and Bee to tropical favorites like Isla Sirena and Miami Nectar, and dig into our thoughts on "clean beauty," is it a real standard or mostly a marketing ploy?

Then we get into the accessible packaging, specifically the magnetic cap on every full-size bottle. Reviewers rave about it, and it's easy to see why: no threading to align and no fumbling, just a satisfying snap-close that happens to work beautifully for anyone with limited hand mobility or grip strength. We're calling it what it is: an accidentally accessible win. We talk about what it means when a brand stumbles into inclusive design without ever naming it, and what they're leaving on the table by staying quiet about it.
