Scent as memory. Memory as art.

Alicia Tsai's grandfather gave her an aerangis orchid — the one with star-shaped flowers that release the most extraordinary scent every evening during bloom. Fresh, delicate, soft. That scent became forever linked with those cherished moments at his side. After studying at the Fashion Institute of Technology and working with New York's finest fragrance minds, Alicia founded Aerangis — not just to bottle her own precious memories, but to help all of us tell our own stories through scent. Rather thoughtful of her, we think.
