LAMU: A luminous beach fragrance that captures Kenya's sun-drenched coast. Opens with a burst of bright Italian lemon, aromatic bergamot, and herbaceous coastal sage. The heart unfolds with salty plumeria, crisp coconut water, and lush gardenia, evoking tropical blooms kissed by sea spray. Sun-bleached driftwood, warm solar musk, and smooth sandalwood create a golden, skin-like base. LAMU balances citrusy vigor with beachy florals and sun-warmed woods, offering a unique twist on the classic summer scent.

THE SCIENCE
Our sense of smell is our strongest and most intense emotion. It is directly linked to our limbic system, the part of the brain responsible for the emotional and behavioral activity.
Utilizing 25 years of clinical study of proprietary olfactory technology, each scent is specifically designed by master perfumers using this research to promote distinct mood responses.
CULTURAL INSPIRATION
Lamu Island in Kenya is a breathtaking beach and port city.
Lamu is known to be the oldest and best-preserved Swahili settlement in East Africa, still preserving many of traditional functions.
SENIOR PERFUMER
Gabriela Chelariu's introduction to the fragrance industry was initially the aroma research lab, and developed into fine fragrance craftsmenship under the tutelage of famed perfumer, Honorine Blanc.

these memories to touch peoples lives with my creations is an ultimate privilege.”
