There Are Customers.
There Are Collectors.
And Then There Are The Ten.
House of James invites ten individuals worldwide to step beyond fragrance ownership and become part of its creation.
The Ten is not a subscription.
It is not a loyalty program.
It is a private circle of collectors, enthusiasts and patrons granted unprecedented access to the creative heart of House of James.
As a Founding Member, you will gain access to unreleased creations, influence future fragrances, collect pieces unavailable to the public, and leave a permanent mark on the history of the House.
Only ten positions exist.
Once all places are filled, applications will close.
PILLAR I - ACCESS
Behind The Curtain
The Ten grants access to experiences and creations that are never available to the public.
Included Benefits
• Access to fragrances that never reach public release
• Six private online sessions annually with Justin James
• Direct access to the perfumer for feedback and discussion
• Private member community
• Annual State of the House presentation
• Early access to sales, launches and limited editions
This is where ideas are shared before they become fragrances.
PILLAR II - INFLUENCE
Help Shape The Future Of The House
Most fragrance lovers experience finished creations.
The Ten helps shape them.
As a member, you will have the opportunity to:
• Vote on future fragrance releases
• Influence which archived fragrances return
• Receive blind evaluation samples
• Submit feedback on new creations
• Participate in The Trial, where members assess experimental works before release
Every opinion matters.
Every voice contributes.
Every decision helps shape the future direction of House of James.
