Considered the silent killer, depression affects as many as 350 million people worldwide. I say as much, because many more suffer in silence. Audrey Butvay, a vocal activist and champion to defeat depression, is the founder and chairman of the Hope for Depression Research Foundation (HDRF). She created her foundation in 2006, after seeing her mom, Hope, battle clinical depression most of her life. On September 1st, she launched the Hope Fragrance, a four piece collection exclusively at Saks Fifth Avenue Stores and online. The brand new collection, (perfume, hand cream, candle, and travel size perfume), captures Hope’s favorite scents such as white flowers, lilies, jasmine, gardenia and tuberose.
