Maya Njie • Les Fleurs
Les Fleurs - Eau de Parfum
This fragrance bursts open with a vigorous energy, giving way to a bright heart of sweet fig, neroli, and magnolia. Subtle base notes of floral musks and fresh woods provide a soft, lasting finish. Inspired by Minnie Riperton’s 1970 hit Les Fleur, it’s a green floral celebration of life, love, and creation.
Rooted in memories of Maya’s older sister Anne-Sophie and their great uncle at their grandad’s allotment cabin, this scent captures the spirit of familial bonds and cherished moments.

Maya Njie
Maya Njie’s fragrances are deeply personal, drawing on her dual Scandinavian and Gambian heritage to capture the essence of memory and place. Self-taught, she began experimenting with raw materials, essential oils, and aroma compounds, creating scents that are both nostalgic and modern.
Her perfumes are inspired by vivid recollections of childhood: summers spent in a small Swedish house surrounded by ever-changing forests, quiet Sunday afternoons in her grandparents’ modest flat, and the joyful celebration of family weddings. These moments, immortalized in 1960s family photographs, form the heart of her work.
Each fragrance tells a story, bottling the textures, tones, and emotions of a time and place. Maya’s creations transform fleeting memories into rich, evocative scents, offering a timeless connection to the past while feeling profoundly contemporary.
