My Story

Sri Lanka’s First Fragrance House with an In-House Perfumer

ELVOIR was born in 2020, during a time when the world — and Sri Lanka — was facing unprecedented change. As global perfume brands became increasingly expensive and difficult to access, I noticed a clear gap in the market: the absence of a local fragrance house that could offer true luxury, quality, and craftsmanship without being out of reach.

That gap became the foundation of ELVOIR.

My vision was simple yet ambitious — to create a fragrance house rooted in Sri Lanka that could redefine how we experience perfume, while standing confidently alongside international brands.

My Journey into Perfumery

To bring this vision to life, I went straight to the source — France, the heart of the global perfume industry. I trained at the prestigious Grasse Institute of Perfumery, gaining hands-on exposure to fine fragrance creation and working closely with a world-renowned French fragrance house.

This experience shaped ELVOIR’s philosophy: blending European perfumery craftsmanship with a deep understanding of Sri Lanka’s climate, culture, and evolving taste in luxury.

The ELVOIR Difference

ELVOIR is proud to be Sri Lanka’s first fragrance house with an in-house perfumer. This allows us complete creative and quality control — from scent composition to final packaging.

Every ELVOIR fragrance is crafted using premium French fragrance oils and thoughtfully formulated to perform beautifully in Sri Lanka’s tropical climate. Each scent is designed not just to smell exceptional, but to feel personal, refined, and long-lasting.

We specialise in:

  • Customised perfumes for individuals, weddings, and corporate gifting
  • Bespoke fragrances created to reflect personal stories and brand identities
  • A signature collection of luxury yet accessible perfumes for men and women

Every detail — from formulation to presentation — reflects our commitment to craftsmanship, elegance, and accessibility.

A Proudly Sri Lankan Brand with Global Ambitions

ELVOIR represents a new chapter for Sri Lankan perfumery. It is a brand built locally, crafted with intention, and inspired by global standards.

While our roots are firmly planted in Sri Lanka, our ambition is global. ELVOIR exists for those who value authenticity, artistry, and thoughtfully made luxury.

This is only the beginning — and I invite you to be part of the ELVOIR journey.
