Raised in Sweden and degree-educated in London, artist Maya Nije found her niche in perfumery after experimenting with sense of smell as a medium to capture precious moments in time. Tapping into the notion of synaesthesia, Maya interprets found family photographs through personal fragrance – bottling the spirit connected to the classic 1970's Scandinavian idyll combined with the soul of her esoteric Gambian heritage. Handcrafted in small batches in the perfumer’s London studio, these contemporary, genderless fragrances are infused with a comforting measure of nostalgia.
