Dusita
Thai poetry translated into Parisian fragrance.
Parfums Dusita was founded in Paris in 2016 by self-taught perfumer Pissara Umavijani, a Thai artist who arrived in France in 2011 carrying her father's poetry as her primary creative material. Her father, Montri Umavijani, was one of Thailand's most celebrated poets, and each Dusita fragrance serves as an olfactory tribute to a specific poem — translated through naturalistic compositions that blend classic French perfumery technique with Siamese elegance. Pissara composes every fragrance herself, working through the respected Accords & Parfums composition house near Grasse with a commitment to high-quality, largely natural raw materials that are responsibly sourced and entirely cruelty-free. Alongside each scent she creates an original illustration, extending the poem's imagery beyond the bottle. The house is small, precise, and deeply personal — one of the more unusual intersections of literary heritage and fine fragrance in contemporary niche perfumery.
DNA over time
Each column is an era. Each colored band shows that family’s share of accord weight across every perfume the house released in that window. Bigger band = the house leaned harder on that family.
