Evody
Evody is a relatively new French fragrance brand created by a mother and daughter, Régine Daurain and Serine Vossor. Régine had experience in the cosmetics industry, while Serine had a flair for perfumery and haute couture fashion. The delightful result was a collaboration between the two, which eventually led to the opening of a boutique specializing in artistic, distinctive perfumes created by perfumers. But, as always, when something good comes into the world, many people want it. The brand grew, made a name for itself, and took the two beyond their original boundaries. Today, they have 24 different fragrances and are beginning to make a real name for themselves in the world of perfumery. So how does this mother-daughter partnership work, and what makes their perfumes distinctive? Was Régine the one who created Evody? She built her career in the cosmetics niche, developing various skincare products. But after it seemed she had mastered that world, she discovered a new passion and went on to pursue it professionally. How did it happen? Thanks to her expertise, a group of Parisian perfumers approached her to launch an advertising campaign dedicated to perfume. You could say that this was when her obsessive passion for perfume began. After gaining experience in the field, she created her own institute to teach and train others. There, she passed on her love of perfume, its history, its scent, and its ability to stir the imagination. But above all, she succeeded in passing this love on to her daughter, Serine. From a young age, Serine showed a particular interest in perfume, preferring essential oils from Régine's olfactorium to her dolls. Even then, she enjoyed mixing simple formulas, as if she wanted to uncover perfume's secrets. This is probably why she soon revealed surprising olfactory skills. Her first steps were in fashion, working in haute couture, but before long she was drawn to the family's passion for perfumery, a passion she shared with her mother. Beyond perfume, the brand defines moods, images, and captured moments. Authentic fragrance compositions created according to their creators' wishes. A mother and daughter, and their shared passion, were the beginning of this brand's exciting adventure. The name was not chosen at random: it conveys the idea of evodia, "a tree with a hundred thousand flowers," evoking the hundred thousand scents yet to be created. In their search for new creative talent, Régine and Serine opened their first luxury niche perfume boutique in 2006 in the heart of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, naturally naming it Evody. They were the first in Paris to offer rare, intimate, and expensive fragrances. As they shared this magical and addictive olfactory world, they gradually dreamed of creating their own fragrances. Encouraged by their customers, the first perfumes the two created soon became bestsellers at the boutique. The two creators drew inspiration for their various collections from different fields, from the richness of nature and the diversity of cultures to contemporary art trends and a hazy, captivating imagination that offers a beautiful escape.
