PERFUMER PROFILE
Maya Njie
Maya Njie is the notable self-taught perfumer behind her eponymous brand — a collection of striking modern unisex fragrances that take inspiration from her childhood and Swedish-Gambian heritage. Based in London, Maya's background as a visual artist is evidenced in her ability to interpret nostalgic 1970s family photos through fragrance, creating scents that convey a sense of time, place and feeling.
