Tumi
Fragrance calibrated to the traveller's day.
Tumi was founded in 1975 by Charlie Clifford, a former Peace Corps volunteer inspired by his time in Peru — the name derives from the Incan ceremonial knife, a symbol of good fortune. The brand built its identity on premium ballistic nylon travel bags before Samsonite acquired it in 2016 for 1.6 billion dollars. The fragrance line, launched from 2020, extends the travel lifestyle brand's vocabulary into scent: compositions calibrated to the globally mobile professional, prioritising discretion and sophistication over bold projection. Perfumer Catherine Selig contributed to the range, crafting clean aromatic woods and precise citrus accords that function as a grooming complement to the brand's luggage aesthetic. Tumi fragrance distributes through the brand's own retail stores and airport duty-free, a channel that aligns perfectly with its traveller positioning. The line is prestige in pricing, consistent with the luggage brand's premium-but-not-luxury market position.

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.
