Contes de Parfums
The Story of the Brand
Every bottle is a short story, a conte, about a city. Caroline Dumur wrote about the Taj Mahal in Agra, Nelly Hachem-Ruiz about the souks of Marrakesh and Ramón Monegal about the harbour of Sydney.
The Signature of the House
City names, a wide range of styles and a different perfumer for every scent, from Anne Flipo to Carlos Benaïm and Alexandra Carlin.

Why Fragrance Has No Gender
In the world of niche perfumery, experience matters more than categories.
Many niche houses do not create their fragrances for men or for women. They tell a story, recall a memory or bring an emotion to life. The scent comes first, not the gender of the person wearing it.
At ParfuMaria we believe fragrance has no gender. Every scent unfolds in its own way through the natural chemistry of your skin, so the same perfume can smell surprisingly different on two people.
So try not to be guided too much by labels such as feminine, masculine or unisex. The most beautiful fragrance is the one in which you recognise yourself and which you enjoy wearing.
A fragrance does not choose a gender. A fragrance chooses a personality.
What the ParfuMaria Team Thinks About This Brand
A journey in thirteen bottles. We are happy to help you find the city that suits you.
