Gourmand, floral, citrus, woodsy. No matter what fragrance category<\/a> you gravitate towards, there are countless options at various price points on the market just waiting to become your new signature scent. However, despite all of the options to peruse and sniff<\/a>, historically, very few of them are created by Black founders and perfumers. While skin care, makeup, and hair care have made strides in becoming more inclusive in the past decade, the fragrance space<\/a> has always trailed behind. The silver lining is there are a growing number of Black-owned fragrance brands ushering in the change. <\/p>\n

These founders are connecting with a whole set of underrepresented consumers through the power of scent. Often pulling inspiration from their various backgrounds and notes significant to their heritages, these brands\u2019 fragrances are personal yet have wide appeal. Instead of writing her memories down in a journal, Maya Njie, the nose behind the namesake line, self-taught herself perfumery to permanently honor her Swedish and Ghanan heritage. Chris Collins is another example of a creative who\u2019s used perfume to pay homage to cities like Paris and New York that have had significance in his life, as they have so so many others. And if you\u2019re looking to set the mood in your home, candle brands like Harlem Candle Company and FORVR Mood have countless varieties. <\/p>\n

Get acquainted with 11 Black-founded fragrance brands making waves in perfumery. It\u2019s inevitable you\u2019ll discover a new signature scent (or two). <\/p>\n

Gone are the days where everyone claims a signature scent and sticks with it. Now, building a perfume wardrobe is commonplace, along with layering so your scent is unique to you. However, with so many options, not to mention, scent categories, getting into fine fragrance can be overwhelming. That\u2019s why Jeanine Stanislaus, a beauty publicist and consultant, and Terry Kezoh, a tech professional with a background in product development, co-founded S.S.K. (Labs). The brand launches collections rather than singular scents, designed to be mix and matched together. First up is an exploration of amber, with one hero eau de parfum and two roll-on oils. <\/p>\n

This three-piece collection includes one eau de parfum and two roll-on oils (huile de parfum) that showcase different scent profiles of amber. The brand recommends applying one of the roll-ons followed by the eau de parfum, but the choice is really yours. Think of S.S.K. (Labs) as the \u201cchoose your own adventure\u201d of fragrance. <\/div>\n
