About Us

Manné Bertrand-Boise

Founder, Manné Bertrand-Boise came up with the idea of silk aromatherapy pillows by combining her love of luxurious fabrics and home decor design with eastern wellness traditions. The 5 herbal combinations she offers are carefully selected to provide the benefits of aromatherapy as nature intended. Manné created the Crème de la Femme line from her passion of collecting women's vintage silk scarves. She travels around the world to find the most elegant and exquisite designs of the highest quality. The scarves are then brought back to Vermont to be organically cleaned and sewn into eye pillows.

Manné enjoys design, yoga, writing, history, holistic healthcare and the arts. She works as a yoga therapist, an actor and a writer.
