NEED YOUR HELP! Business Name......
 

Okay, you are the group of folks I can look to when i need to brainstorm. I have to change my business name (long story), but I have a few already.....I want your imput and possibly mroe options if you think of any.
I sell incense & oils, and offer information and oils for aromatherapy. Many popular words for this is
aroma, healing, nature/natural, earth, scent(s), essence, pure....

I used to be Puressence- but apparently, out of nowhere came a complany with the name, who sells similar products and their name is trademarked.

I am doing research now on already-trademarked names, so the following are not yet (apparently). These are what I have come up with so far:

Pure Escapes

Healing Aroma

Elise's Incense & Oils (Elise is my middle name)

Healing Scents

Okay, ya like any of them?
Can you think of anything else?

I'd appreciate your ideas and input on this. Thanks!

Re: NEED YOUR HELP! Business Name......
 

Sorry to say none of those resonate with me.

Some off the top of my alliterative head:
Magnificent Myrrh
Elise's Elegant Emergences
bountiful bouquet
Absolute Aroma
Secret Scents

Pure Escapes kind of sounds like some cd that would be sold on tv late at night. I would put stress on the earth and natural, as those seem to be the buzz words of today, with more and more people looking for natural medicenes and what not.

Nature's Healing Touch
Natural Embodiment
Smell the Earth (my personal favorite)
Scent from Heaven (a pun on sent)
Halo Aroma (I just like the sound of that one)

Calmin' Scents

With the greatest respect to everyone who has posted so far, I don't like any of the names suggested.

Pity about Puressence, as this sounded cool.


You need to keep it snappy (one word), and probably slightly femine sounding; as I should imagine most of your customers will be female. No sexist comment intended, but that's just my guess.

How about something like Incensense? Pun on "incense" and "incessant".

Or Scentse (pronounced Sensiz. Pun on "senses" and "scents".

Or Aromasense or AromaScents.

Alternatively, you could go for some multi-word options like...

There are many phrases that use "sense of..." where you could use the word "scent" (to denote smell) instead. Scents of Oblivion or Scents of Peace ... IE, any use of the word "scents" in place of "sense" (if you know what I mean).

How about something corny like Sense of Scents?


I could probably come up with some more if need be. I'll post more suggestions later...


Mr Mephisto

Or how about SenoSense / SenoScents?

Or Innoscents / Innocense? The latter is "white and lavender to pale-blue flowers".

Or a variation on what you already had, like Purocense or PuroScents

Mr Mephisto

What about just splitting Puressence into Pure Essence? Is that still too close to infringing?

Scent of Elise...oh, wait. That sounds totally wrong. Actually, I'd steer clear of words like "Scent" and "smell." People love to smell yummy things, but the words themselves make most folks think of icky-smelling experiences. So think about the yummy smells themselves, not the act of sniffing them.

"Halo Aroma" reminds me of the scents associated with geeks playing video games. (Frankly, I don't think I'm at my best when I'm deep into a FPS jag)

I like Mr Mephisto's made-up words. I think he is on the right track...just ditch the "scent" part for something else.

Or maybe go a totally different direction - Mystic Oils or Tonique (pronounced "tawn EEK")


Ah, fuck. What do I know? Oil of Ole makes me think of bullfighting, and was a successful brand. Bhaisajyaguru (the medicine Buddha) is an awesome name, but who the Hell could pronounce it?

Elise's Incense & Oils is probably the best one so far.

I think Mr Mephisto is on to something. Innoscents is my fav.

Yes, I also like Innoscents

Absolute arouma is pretty good.

InnoScents is pretty good too.

Scents make sents?

Scents and Nonscents?

Hows about Herbal Hessences?

I would stay away from "herbal" myself. Reminds me of "dope heads" and "herbal viagra" kind of spam...

:)

Mr Mephisto

i like... you could make a cool logo with that.

Crotch Rot
Purina Perphume
Phumes
Smoke
San Francisco Fog
Smog
Bovine Beauties

How's that for a start?

I'm thinking about trademarking my "manroma"

I like Innoscents...

thanks for all of your input.

We decided on Aroma Purity. It says what we are and it's not taken. All of the really great names (especially Puressence) is taken. Aroma Purity has what I want to convey and it's easy to remember.

Thanks again for all the ideas.
