Perfume is a powerful thing. It has the ability to transport you to a certain moment in time, bring back memories, and also make you feel a certain way. With the right scent, you feel powerful, feminine, happy, reminiscent  – the emotions, thoughts, and feelings depend on what perfume it is. If you are looking for a new perfume to add to your roster, look no further than The Harmonist, a brand new creation from Ms Lola Karimova-Tillyaeva. Here we take a look at Lola Tillyaeva herself and just how it came to be.

About The Harmonist

The Harmonist is a Maison de perfume and is the latest project from Karimova-Tillyaeva and her husband, Timur Tillyaev. As with their other projects, it ties in with their work on providing harmony to the world around you. There are eleven perfumes in the range, all of which reflect the dual nature of Yin and Yang, the traditional Chinese concept of empowering yourself and your body.

Each of the scents were created by a well-known French perfumer using natural ingredients from around the world. Each fragrance is unique and embodies the five elements, metal, fire, earth, water and wood. Since its launch, The Harmonist has had a boutique in Paris in 2016, followed by an LA store in March of the same year. As well as being a beautiful range of products, The Harmonist also sponsors philanthropic causes to help develop solutions to the world’s most pressing issues.
