Default Putting the apostrophe inthe right place

Hello!

I was just on your website, and I did learn a lot of useful tips. But...I didn't really see what I was looking for? I've started a company, and the name of it is:

Pleascent Aroma's, Inc.
Home & Body

Is my apostrophe in the correct place for "Aroma's" ? Or should it be "Pleascent Aromas" (no apostrophe). Please help?

It appears to me that "aromas" is a plural. As such, an apostrophe would be incorrect. Also, "pleasant" is spelled without a "c". :wink:
