Our story

Made for the space. Meant to be felt.

A home fragrance concept where the scent and the object are equally considered.

The story

Fragrance is personal. So is the space it lives in.

Choosing home fragrance online asks a great deal of the imagination. A scent can’t be experienced through a screen, and even when one sounds beautiful, it often arrives in a vessel that doesn’t belong in the room it was chosen for.

UMINA began with a simple question: what if the vessel was considered as carefully as the fragrance itself? A candle lives in the home like any other object, so it should be something you’d want on display, even when it isn’t burning.

The philosophy

Form meets feeling.

Every UMINA fragrance is designed together with its vessel. Five compositions, each paired with its own ceramic finish, held in sculptural forms shaped to sit naturally among the objects you live with, whether the candle is lit or unlit.

The experience

Find your atmosphere.

Because fragrance is hard to choose through a screen, discovery begins with what you already know: the space you’re scenting, the feeling you want it to hold, and the notes that draw you in. From there, we suggest the fragrance that feels most at home.
