Claire Burke Update

Posted in Claire Burke, Memories of scents and loved ones at 2:50 pm by freshbet

In 1998, I established Freshbet.com to share my passion for great home fragrance products as your local gift store on the web. I have thoroughly enjoyed specializing in great products that represent ultra-fragrant value for your home. The economy has given us a challenging year and Claire Burke has been aggressively promoting special offers on their own website over the last few years which has affected our sales.

While I love the Claire Burke line I have agreed with them that Fresh Bet Home Fragrances will no longer be offering our beloved Claire Burke, so I am introducing you to the official online gift store for Claire Burke, myclaireburke.com.

For the past 10 years I have had a great business relationship with the owners of the Claire Burke brand. As loyal, repeat customers of FreshBet.com, I know many of you are buying the Claire Burke Home Fragrance products I have featured on my website.

I want to make certain that you can continue to purchase all of the high value Claire Burke products that I have been selling, and personally using and love. I have asked Claire Burke to extend to you their exclusive email offers which include clearance sales, free shipping offers, seasonal fragrances, and new product introductions.

Please visit myclaireburke.com, the official online gift store of Claire Burke Home Fragrance Products. There you will find the most extensive line of Claire Burke products including seven classic fragrances, five seasonal fragrances, and hundreds of products from which to choose.

Again, I want to encourage all of you to continue to enjoy Claire Burke Home Fragrances by shopping the official Factory website.

Save now when you enter this exclusive promotion code at checkout:WELCOME20 at www.MyClaireBurke.com and receive 20% off your first order, now until October 31, 2009.

Thank you for your patronage over the years and your interest in Claire Burke.

Fragrant Regards,

August Scent of the Month Sale

Posted in Aromatique Home Fragrances, Claire Burke, Sales and Special Promotions at 12:19 pm by freshbet

It was only a few months ago that we started offering a Scent of the Month special. Our customers have responded well though so we will continue this program.

Last month it was Aromatique Grapefruit Fandango. For the month of August we have 2 scents of the month:
* Aromatique Sorbet
* Claire Burke Vanilla Bean

Both of these fragrance collections are now marked down by 20% and limited to stock on hand.

I haven’t quite decided yet, but I think for September we will feature Apple Jack & Peel by Claire Burke. Of course, this is subject to change…I am a woman, so I’m allowed to change my mind :)

We also have Smell of Spring by Aromatique marked down by 20%. There are a few winter items now 60% off.

Claire Burke Haunted Home Discontinued

Posted in Claire Burke at 6:26 am by freshbet

Recently we’ve had several blog comments inquiring about the availability of Claire Burke’s The Haunted Home. Many of you are looking forward to having more products available in this wonderful fall fragrance. Sadly, the Factory has discontinued the scent entirely and it will not be available this Fall.

Freshbet still has a few Haunted Home candles available from Fall 2008. They are marked down by 60% and quantities are limited. We just recently sold out of the warmer refills.

Claire Burke Winter 09

Posted in Claire Burke at 7:28 am by freshbet

We simply adore Claire Burke, it’s a very personal product line to me having grown up in the 60’s with a Mom who loved her Original. Recently we had a customer who found us on-line and visited our store. She told me the big department store in her town had told her that Claire Burke was no longer in business. HA! Wrong!

Here’s what we look forward to offering you for Fall & Winter 2009:
* New Slice of Spice - available in September
* More Mini-Reed Diffusers available in Christmas Memories, Oh Christmas Tree, Pomegranate Plum & new Slice of Spice.

Naturally we will have Christmas Memories and Oh Christmas Tree. These will start arriving in early October. There will be Vapourri, Votives, Tealights, Shimmer Candle, Plug-in Warmer Refills, and a new Potpourri in acetate box instead of bag.

We will again be offering the Ceramic Simmer Oil Fireplace set and Ceramic Tree Tealight Holder. There will be simmering oil in Christmas Memories, but none produced by the factory in Oh Christmas Tree. For our simmering oil fans, you may want to stock up this year. It seems that Simmering Oils may soon be discontinued as they are no longer selling well. So sad, but I suppose they have been replaced by warmer refills and reed diffusers; which take less effort to use.
