Luxury brand, retail & market-entry consultancy

Considered strategy.
Distinctive brands.
Lasting client relationships.

We work with emerging and established luxury brands to refine their positioning, strengthen their retail approach and plan expansion across the GCC, UK and Europe.

Founded by SHANEELA, our consultancy combines experience spanning London’s luxury retail houses and entrepreneurship with commercial insight, creative direction and specialist expertise in fragrance and perfumery.

A specialist practice in fragrance

An individual story,
expressed through scent

Alongside our wider luxury consultancy, we offer commissioned fragrance composition and creative development for brands and private clients.

From a personal perfume to a signature fragrance or collection, we bring together scent, identity and storytelling to develop a coherent creative direction.

Our fragrance practice draws on our founder’s experience in luxury fragrance retail, private client advisory and fragrance portfolio development.
