FROM GALENTINES TO VALENTINES: FEBRUARY FÊTES AT BRASSERIE MARGOT

Girl Dinner Thursdays, Multi-Course Valentines Menus, a Garnish & Gather Collaboration and a Margot-Approved Afternoon Tea Set The Tone For February

Atlanta, GA (February 4, 2026) — Brasserie Margot invites Atlantans and visitors alike to embrace the spirit of February with a lineup of thoughtfully designed experiences for couples, friends, and loved ones. The celebrations begin with a collaborative meal kit with Garnish & Gather and continues in the restaurant with a Galentine’s celebration inspired by a modern girl dinner, then builds toward a polished Valentine’s Day weekend anchored by multi-course French menus and a stylish, Margot-approved Afternoon Tea.

Partnering with Garnish & Gather for a special Valentine’s season meal kit, Brasserie Margot brings a touch of Parisian romance into the home kitchen. Fresh off earning his Certified Executive Chef designation through the American Culinary Federation, Four Seasons Hotel Atlanta’s Executive Chef Axel Torres lends his culinary sensibility to a timeless French classic, reimagining Chicken Paillard with the same precision and warmth that define every plate served in the dining room. Available to order through February 10, the limited-time meal kit transforms a night in into something memorable. 

The festivities in the brasserie begin Thursday, February 12, with a Margot-inspired Galentine’s offering that sets the tone for the month, returning every Thursday through February. Priced at $35 per person, the sharable spread features Salade César, four oysters, unlimited house fries, and two martinis, with an optional $16 caviar supplement for those in the mood to take it further. 

Valentine’s Day weekend, February 14 and 15, shifts the mood at Brasserie Margot, with evenings built around multi-course French cooking and a more intimate, unhurried pace. Two dinner seatings are offered each night, allowing guests to choose between an early three-course prix-fixe from 5 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. and a more expansive five-course prix-fixe from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Both menus highlight seasonal French cuisine from Chef de Cuisine Christophe Truchet, with optional beverage pairings available.

The three-course menu opens with an amuse bouche followed by seared foie gras with sweet and savory figs and port wine reduction, pan-seared scallops with leek risotto and lemon butter sauce and concludes with raspberry-strawberry Champagne cake paired with sparkling Brachetto d’Acqui. The five-course menu builds on the experience, beginning with warm deviled eggs topped with Siberian caviar and sourdough croutons, followed by seared foie gras with figs, pan-seared scallops with leek risotto and lemon butter sauce, and roasted Joyce Farms chicken breast accented with black truffle, mashed potatoes, and chicken jus. Dessert mirrors the three-course finale with raspberry-strawberry Champagne cake and Brachetto d’Acqui. Optional beverage pairings, featuring Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label Brut Champagne, Minuty M Rosé, Joseph Phelps Cabernet Sauvignon, and a signature Rosita cocktail, are available for an additional $45.

For a lighter, daytime celebration, Brasserie Margot also offers its “Be Margot’s Valentine” Afternoon Tea on February 14 and 15. Priced at $58 per person, or $68 with a Rosé pairing, the experience includes savory bites, handcrafted bonbons, red velvet–inspired sweets, and refined seasonal details with a playfully chic edge.

URTHY’S HEARTSTRUCK LAUNCHES FOR VALENTINE’S DAY THROUGH FRAGRANCE, DISCOVERY + EXPERIENCE

Atlanta Scent Brand Debuts its First Vanilla-Forward Fragrance Alongside Curated Valentine’s Gifting, Discovery Kits, and Immersive In-Store ‘Love is in the Lab’ Classes

Urthy, the Atlanta-based clean lifestyle brand known for crafting plant-based products, announces the launch of Heartstruck ($42–$125), its first-ever vanilla-forward fragrance—a notable departure and a new expression of warmth within the brand’s scent portfolio. Available in time for Valentine’s Day, Heartstruck blends warm, creamy notes with bright, modern accords to evoke feelings of comfort, connection, and irresistible allure.
 
Heartstruck opens with the rich sweetness of vanilla bean and silky shea butter, melting seamlessly into smooth, woody santal that lingers on the skin with subtle warmth. A fresh touch of green fig adds lightness and balance, keeping the scent crisp and contemporary while enhancing its creamy depth—resulting in a fragrance that feels both cozy and unforgettable.
 
Designed to Be Felt
Heartstruck is designed to capture that moment of emotional warmth and attraction—the feeling of being truly, delightfully struck by someone,” said Jen Rotondo, Founder of Urthy. “I’ve never been drawn to traditional vanilla scents, so creating one I truly fell in love with felt meaningful. Just as our Feel Something movement uses intentional scent rituals to reconnect people with presence and emotional wellbeing, Heartstruck invites wearers to pause and feel—this time through the language of fragrance.”
 
Offered across Urthy’s signature formats—including daily fragrance, hair & body mist, candles, and more—Heartstruck allows scent lovers to experience its warm profile in ways that fit seamlessly into everyday rituals, from personal wear to shared moments at home.
 
Valentine’s Day Gifting, Reimagined
In celebration of Valentine’s Day gifting, Urthy has also introduced a Couples Heartstruck Kit, designed to elevate connection through coordinated scent and intentional ritual. The limited-time set includes a Heartstruck body oil candle, hot stones, and the Heartstruck daily fragrance—creating a sensory experience meant to be shared and making it a thoughtful option for gifting.
 
In addition, Urthy is offering a special Discovery Kit just in time for Valentine’s Day, perfect for those looking to explore scent together or discover a new signature fragrance. The curated set includes five .05 oz. vials of Urthy’s most-loved scents—Abundant Soul, Heartstruck, Loving Spirit, Evermoon, and Lavendly—making it an ideal introduction to the brand’s fragrance collection and a thoughtful, experiential alternative to traditional Valentine’s Day gifts.
 
Love is in the Lab
Beyond traditional gifting, Urthy invites guests to celebrate the season through its limited-time Valentine’s and Galentine’s class offerings, where scent, ritual, and connection take center stage. Dubbed Love Is in the Lab,” the experience transforms Urthy’s in-store labs into festive, hands-on gatherings complete with optional add-ons like prosecco or sparkling non-alcoholic sips, chocolates, and roses at the table. Held Feb. 12–15, guests can choose from four immersive labs, including the Body Oil Candle LabFace Mask LabPerfume Roller Lab, and Blendology Fragrance Making experience. With classes offered on a limited basis and private parties available upon request, these sessions offer a memorable Valentine’s or Galentine’s alternative to traditional plans.
 
Rooted in Ritual
Crafted without heavy alcohol bases or harsh synthetics, Heartstruck joins Urthy’s growing collection of clean fragrances designed to wear close to the skin and evolve naturally throughout the day—making scent a grounding ritual rather than an overpowering statement. As one of the scents featured within Urthy’s ongoing Feel Something initiative, Heartstruck supports moments of presence, emotional connection, and intentional pause—whether shared or practiced solo. Guests are encouraged to mark their calendars for National Feel Something Day™ on January 31, a collective moment to slow down and reconnect through the senses.
 
Heartstruck is now available at www.urthylife.com and in the flagship store at 1205 Johnson Ferry Rd., Suite 105, Marietta, GA 30068. Follow @urthylife on Instagram for updates, events and more information.
