Ruth Mastenbroek
The Story of the Brand
Ruth Mastenbroek grew up in America, studied chemistry at Oxford and learned her craft in Grasse. She worked for decades for major houses and chaired the British Society of Perfumers before launching her own brand in 2010. Each composition is a memory: a summer on Corfu at dawn for Dagian, her student years in Oxford, the rolling Umbria around her Italian home for Amorosa. Her Signature was the first scent she made for herself. The bottles carry a golden drop with a small drawing of the place where the story begins.
The Signature of the House
Recognisable are the bright opening, the natural raw materials and a soft woody base that stays close to the skin.

Why Fragrance Has No Gender
In niche perfumery, it is not about categories but about experience.
Many niche houses do not create their perfumes specifically for men or women. Instead, they tell a story, evoke a memory or bring an emotion to life. The scent takes centre stage, not the gender of the wearer.
At ParfuMaria, we believe a fragrance has no gender. Every scent develops in its own way through the natural chemistry of your skin. At Ruth Mastenbroek, too, you are free to choose, however a scent is described.
So try not to be guided too much by terms such as women, men or unisex. The most beautiful fragrance is not the one that fits a certain box, but 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
What moves us about Ruth Mastenbroek is that you find the maker in every bottle. There is no marketing team behind it, just a woman who has made perfume for forty years and now finally tells her own stories. We find Oxford tough and dry, Amorosa feels like a terrace in Italy and Dagian is a morning swim in the sea. Feel free to start with a 30 ml and you will soon notice which memory suits you best.
