Maya Njie • Nordic Cedar
Nordic Cedar - Eau de Parfum
Vibrant notes of cardamom open this scent with a lively, spicy energy. Earthy patchouli and cedarwood provide a grounded balance, while soft musk and amber create a warm, rich foundation. The result is a fragrance that is both untamed and inviting.
Inspired by Maya’s older sister Anette, who often chatted with family outside their grandad’s allotment cabin—a magical spot overlooking open fields and boreal forests.

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.
