SPOTLIGHT: Sweet vinyl by DREAMOUR

What happens when two immensely talented visionaries come together to create elegance and ingenuity in a sculptural glass fragranced candle? Dreamour. That is the long and short version of how Dreamour was created. Founded by Karissa Rowe and Neal Klotsman in late September 2022, Dreamour was founded with the goal of creating a luxury fragrance brand that operates at the intersection of functional art in the candle market space.
Rowe, a Parsons School of Design graduate, set out to fill the niche of integrating design in the candle marketplace. Unlike most candle vessels that are mass-produced, Dreamour’s founders desired to prioritize the artisanal craftsmanship of glass in their production processes of the sculptural glass designs. This resulted in a long timeline of sourcing the globe for talented glass artisans who could transform a sketch into a functional and sophisticated candle vessel. Each and every candle vessel is hand-blown, inherently resulting in a one-of-a-kind product and unique experience for the consumer. These functional fragrant candles also act as a piece of décor due to its sculptural and alluring appearance.
Sweet Vinyl, Dreamour’s first candle scent, fills the room with musky & leathery notes combined with earthy notes of vetiver and cypriol, topped with a citrus touch of bergamot and mandarin. The founders worked with master perfumers in Grasse, France, to create a scent that invoked notes of memorable moments, emphasizing high quality ingredients in the fragrances in a soy wax blend. This resulted in candles that consist of clean ingredients, a vegan formula, and is entirely cruelty-free.
It is the personification of the glass blowers’ spirit, the heart of Grasse imprisoned in a bottle, and the narrative of two visionaries that sets Dreamour at the top of the candle market pedestal. Dreamour embodies the sophistication and savior-faire French perfumery as a luxury brand, while being a NYC based brand. Dreamour is currently stocked at Patron of the New in New York, along with other major designer luxury known brands. Rowe and Klotsman are currently expanding their production lines and will drop new fragrances and designs in early 2023. Don’t expect anything ordinary with Dreamour, as they will continue to bring a unique perspective to the marketplace of home fragrances.

How Private Hotsprings Can Transform Wellness Tourism with Its Lithia-Inspired Innovations

By Michelle Snow
Private Hotsprings resort features exclusive infinity-edge pools fed by natural hot springs, attracting wellness tourists to British Columbia’s remote wilderness. Tina and Alex Genzer are expanding beyond hospitality with Lithios Beverages, a drink line incorporating lithia-rich mineral water from the springs. The new venture aims to bring the therapeutic benefits of the resort’s natural waters to consumers worldwide.
Enchanted By Nature
Tina and Alex are familiar with entrepreneurship. Before embarking on their journey to British Columbia, the pair successfully ran a boiler installation and construction business in Toronto, specializing in snowmelt systems. While Alex, a former Air Force pilot, honed his engineering expertise and cultivated a strong public presence with CBC and News Talk 1010 appearances, Tina led business operations with her signature entrepreneurial flair.
Tina Genzer recalls how their lives changed when they discovered the Kootenay region’s natural hot springs. “We were captivated by the serenity of this place,” she says. The couple started acquiring chalets that blend luxury and nature. Today, Private Hotsprings offers three properties: the Cedar Log Cabin with a waterfall and lake access and two chalets featuring the world’s only infinity-edge hot spring pools.
The couple’s leadership style has been instrumental in the company’s growth. The Genzers have carved out a niche that remains untouched by competitors by prioritizing exclusivity and direct customer engagement over conventional review systems. “Our mission has always been to create a serene retreat where guests can unwind, rejuvenate, and reconnect with themselves,” Alex Genzer explains.
Lithios Beverages
Tina and Alex’s idea for Lithios Beverages emerged during a restorative evening at the hot springs, inspired by the therapeutic effects of lithia-rich waters. Since its successful debut in New York earlier this year, which sold out within days, the brand is now planning to partner with a major U.S. distributor to enter the growing health and wellness beverage market.
The Genzers are well-positioned to leverage this opportunity, as Lithios Beverages aligns with their brand ethos blending the purity of their mineral springs with health-conscious choices. “Lithios is not just a beverage, it is a lifestyle,” says Tina Genzer. “We aim to provide the same rejuvenation and vitality our guests experience, no matter where they are.”
A Rising Tide for Wellness Tourism
Wellness tourism thrives on authenticity and connection to nature, two qualities that Private Hotsprings exemplifies. The company has tapped into a lucrative market segment that prioritizes unique and restorative experiences over mass tourism by offering exclusive access to mineral-rich hot springs in a private setting.
Competitors in the wellness industry have begun to explore similar models, but only some can rival Private Hotsprings’ distinctive offerings. The company’s first-in-the-world infinity-edge pools and meticulous curation of guest experiences give it a significant edge.
The Next Phase
Despite these challenges, the Genzers remain optimistic about the future. Their dual focus on Private Hotsprings and Lithios Beverages allows them to innovate within two complementary markets.
The next phase of their journey includes expanding Lithios Beverages across the U.S., emphasizing sustainability and transparency. Lithios Beverages has opened up its next round of funding to scale its operations.
The Genzers are also exploring ways to share their story with a broader audience. “We want investors and guests alike to understand the heart and vision behind what we do,” Tina says. “It is not just about running a business, it is about creating something meaningful and lasting.”
Tina and Alex Genzer have created an example of success that other industry players will undoubtedly seek to emulate by blending luxury with nature and leveraging their lithia-rich waters for global impact.
