Our review: Cardamom first, dry and direct — the vanilla arrives later, quiet, faintly bourbon-tinged. Vanilj is a spiced wood that warms slowly on the skin, comforting without being sweet. Intimate sillage, lasting presence. The signature of Maya Njie, a Swedish-Gambian creator who composes her fragrances like family photographs. Learn More >

    The Fragrance

    Using the distinctly traditional Swedish combination of Vanilla and Cardamon, Vanilj becomes Nordic Cedar’s sweeter, more softly spoken sibling. The spicy, earthy aspect of Cardamom, Patchouli and Cedarwood is still present but now somewhat tamed towards a powdery gourmand by the added Vanilla note which gives the scent a slightly 'boozy' bourbon facet - delicious. *PHOTO DESCRIPTION* Maya’s uncle Lars getting married. Lars was a tree surgeon by trade and hobbyist photographer who took many of the family photographs that inspired Maya to formulate. Nyköping, Sweden 1971. The familiar embrace of get togethers and celebrations at home give warmth. Captured images advocate opportunities to reminisce.

    The Brand

    Founded in 2016, Maya Njie Perfumes explores the intertwining of scents and memories in blends of high-quality artisanal perfumes.

    Extracted, filtered, and bottled, these are personal moments through which the wearer creates their own feelings, attachment, and significance. Maya Njie's perfumes are assembled like memories; scents that seek to capture the essence and preserve the spirit of the intimate and personal. Elusive moments and subtle details, those that would otherwise have escaped consciousness, are thus recalled.

    Maya's olfactory identity is inspired by her childhood, as well as intimate family photo archives dating back to the 1960s: the small Swedish holiday home surrounded by changing forests, visits to her grandparents in their sparsely furnished apartment on Sunday afternoons, her uncle Lars and aunt Erene's wedding.

    The Perfumer

    As a self-taught perfumer, Maya’s practice was developed through experimentation; the blending of raw materials with a variety of essential oils, aroma compounds and resins; nature and science combining in autobiographical fragrances.

    Maya’s olfactory identity draws inspiration from her upbringing, as well as an archive of intimate family photographs from the 1960s; the small Swedish summer house surrounded by mercurial forests, the visits to her grandparents’ sparsely furnished flat on Sunday afternoons, Uncle Lars' and Aunt Erene’s wedding.

    A bottling of a time, place and spirit.
