Maya Njie
Maya Njie has been creating perfumes in London since 2016, drawing inspiration from an old family photo album. As she leafed through it, she asked herself a simple question: “What did that moment smell like?” Her perfumes seek to capture the essence and preserve the spirit of the intimate and personal, inspired by her dual Swedish and Gambian heritage.
Maya Njie Perfumes: Capturing memories through scent
Choosing a Maya Njie fragrance is like wearing a liquid photograph. Founded in London in 2016 by a self-taught designer, the brand offers an artisanal, gender-neutral approach to niche haute perfumery. Each fragrance draws its structure from Maya's mixed heritage: the woody purity of Scandinavia meets the vibrant warmth of West Africa. In our SCENTISSIME selection, you will find the brand's iconic fragrances: Nordic Cedar: The absolute best-seller, a perfect marriage of cedar, patchouli and sparkling cardamom. Vanilj: A boozy and spicy vanilla that breaks with the usual gourmand clichés. Tobak: A smoky, honeyed leather with rare elegance. Whether you're looking for an intimate Eau de Parfum or a Discovery Set to explore this nostalgic universe, Maya Njie offers small-batch compositions where natural ingredients and high-quality synthetic compounds are balanced for impeccable longevity.
