Skylar is a brand of natural perfumes that you can feel great about spritzing. The name Skylar was inspired by the qualities of a clear day – airy, natural, and beautiful. But perfume, in an Outdoor Store? To that we say, yes!

• Clean modern scents that are unique, light, and never overpowering.
• Natural ingredients, free of paragons and toxic chemicals.
• Hypoallergenic, skin-safe and non-irritating.
• Cruelty-free. Vegan and never tested on animals.

These are commitments that are in line with what we support here at Shepherd & Schaller, with our selection of organic fabric garments, recycled and fair trade items and love of the environment. Fragrance is an awesome gift or treat to yourself, and the perfect complement to an active lifestyle.

The cherry-on-top is the ability to layer Skylar scents. Begin by taking their quiz here to see which fragrance will suit you best.

Skylar cares about your health AND the health of our environment and animal friends. They make ingredient and packaging choices that keep the Earth (and our friendly animals) in mind. Dual-purpose packaging, renewable resources, recyclable packing materials – Mother Earth is pleased.Additionally, they do all manufacturing here in the U.S. and are proud to partner with ethical and eco-friendly suppliers.

The outdoor lifestyle is more than a trend at Shepherd & Schaller, where recycling and repurposing is in our soul. Maybe you’ve visited our home in an 1800s building, seen our cozy sales floor decorated with historic artifacts and sporting gear, a current trend yet a style we’ve always embraced. Waste not, want not!

The “trend” toward a conscious effort to choose products that respect the earth and all of us living here, while simplifying your home and outdoor lifestyle is one we really get behind. So, alongside the organic and recycled fabrics and transparent supply chains and certified Faire Trade things in our clothing department, check out these for your home and lifestyle when you visit us in downtown Wausau:
