EMME began with a simple idea: the scents they grew up with, like steamed rice, tropical fruits, and temple incense, deserved to be seen, felt, and remembered. EMME creates fragrances rooted in memory, shaped by emotion, and expressed through natural materials and soft structure. Their scents are crafted to feel like places and rituals that formed them: bathhouses, night markets, and family kitchens. Clean. Layered. Reflective.
