Frequently Asked Questions
How does faith show up in SOTE?
God is at the center of SOTE.
Each fragrance is inspired by Scripture and engraved with a verse reference as a reminder of His presence in everyday life. This brand exists to point back to Him — through beauty, intention, and moments that encourage faith to be shared naturally.
Why did you create SOTE?
SOTE was created to help women feel seen, loved, and lifted. I wanted to create something beautiful that also carries meaning — something that gently points back to God in a way that feels personal, wearable, and encouraging. My prayer is that each fragrance becomes a reminder of identity, worth, and hope, and that it encourages others to share faith through everyday moments.
What does SOTE stand for?
SOTE stands for Salt of the Earth. Our fragrances are inspired by Scripture and created as reminders of renewal, faith, and living with intention. Every detail — from the scent to the engraving — is designed to feel meaningful and thoughtful.
How do you approach fragrance creation?
We take a slow, intentional approach. Each fragrance is developed with trusted partners and reviewed carefully before release. We believe fragrance should feel beautiful, personal, and something you can wear with confidence.
Do you care about ingredient safety?
Very much. Before any fragrance is released, we review professional safety documentation for the finished formula. We take the time to understand what’s in each scent and how it’s evaluated, rather than rushing a product to market.
Do SOTE fragrances contain carcinogens or reproductive toxins?
Our fragrance documentation confirms that our finished formulas are not classified as carcinogenic, mutagenic, or toxic to reproduction.
What about endocrine disruptors ?
We take endocrine health seriously. Our fragrances are formulated without ingredients classified as endocrine disruptors based on current safety data and regulatory standards. All formulas are evaluated using Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and comply with international fragrance safety guidelines.
Are your fragrances meant for everyday wear?
Yes. Our fragrances are designed to be worn daily — moments big and small — as a quiet reminder of beauty, faith, and intention.
Why don’t you list every ingredient?
Fine fragrance formulas are proprietary. While we don’t disclose full formulas, we ensure each scent is supported by safety documentation and reviewed with care before being released.
What matters most to you as a brand?
Care, honesty, and intention. We believe what you wear should reflect thoughtfulness — not fear, not trends, but confidence and meaning.
