Emmotiv

My inspiration for Emmotiv:
I created Emmotiv to celebrate the beauty of human emotion through the art of scent. We live in a world that often encourages us to suppress how we feel. Yet it's our emotions that define our most profound human experiences. And that's worth embracing.

The roots of my passion:
My love of fragrance started when I was ten. Born and raised in Romania before the revolution, my family had little access to self-care products. Then one day, my mom received an unusual gift: a bottle of perfume. It was the first time I experienced anything so sensorially delightful. And so started a lifelong passion.
