I first discovered photography as a teenager, though I’ll admit I didn’t pour as much love into it as I could have. At the time, I was focused on a very different journey—more personal—which became my main priority.

Even so, photography captivated me. I’m grateful I got to experience it just before digital took over completely. The darkroom process felt like pure magic to me: hands-on, slow, and beautifully artistic.

My love for fragrance started even earlier. I used to rub my wrists across the scented pages of Avon magazines—the kind where the perfume was infused into the paper. I collected miniature bottles and burned incense sticks constantly. Scent fascinated me; it still does.

In my late twenties, I finally decided to bring these two passions together. I created an Instagram space dedicated to fragrance and photography—a place where visual storytelling meets the art of scent.
