More about the scents:

Each scent is based on one of my memories from my years living in Barcelona, and named in Catalan after an area in Barcelona.

Mitjanit, Horta-Guinardó

A midnight stroll through Horta-Guinardó, night-blooming jasmine trailing down a garden wall and honeysuckle lingering in the evening air. Sun-kissed skin still warm from a day at the beach...

Mitjanit, Horta-Guinardó (Midnight, Horta-Guinardó): Natural, vegan perfume oil, handmade in London

The Place: Horta-Guinardó, a hillside neighbourhood in Barcelona

My Story: While living in Horta-Guinardó, I took my dog Benito out on many a nighttime walk, and my favourite walks were always summer evenings when I could smell jasmine in the air. So I made this perfume to capture my memory.

Notes: Jasmine, honeysuckle, benzoin (a plant resin with vanillic warmth)

Hero ingredient: Hexane-free, organically extracted honeysuckle absolute (the one I chose comes from Italy)

Botanical notes: Each full-size bottle contains around 6,000 jasmine blossoms.

Juliol a Gràcia

A summer afternoon on a terrace in the village-like neighourhood of Gràcia. A slice of orange in a drink, the scent of the wooden table in the sun, and a pot of geraniums blooming in the corner...

The Perfume: Juliol a Gràcia (July in Gracia): Natural, vegan perfume oil, handmade in London

The Place: Gràcia, the most charming former village, now part of the city of Barcelona

My Story: While living in Gràcia, some friends invited me over for drinks on their terrace. We spent a lazy July afternoon drinking as the sun slipped across the sky, and I bottled the memory into this perfume.

Notes: Bergamot, orange, geranium bourbon (fresh, leafy-rose), and woody Cypress, with a touch of a sea breeze (sea fennel)

Hero ingredient: Sea fennel (also called rock samphire), a precious essential oil that gives a touch of salinity and a hint of a sea breeze. The variety I selected comes from Greece, and inspired the sketch I drew of sea fennel in Mariesme's logo and packaging

Botanical notes: My Cypress comes from Spain; its botanical name, sempervirens, means "ever-living" and in aromatherapy is believed to be calming and grounding.

El Jardí de Sant Pau

A summer's stroll through a Mediterranean garden: woody, herbaceous greenery, a hint of citrus in the air, and a sea breeze that dances through the trees...

The Perfume: El Jardí de Sant Pau (St Paul's Garden): Natural, vegan perfume oil, handmade in London

The Place: The gardens of my favourite place in Barcelona, the stunningly beautiful, UNESCO World Heritage listed El Recinte Modernista de Sant Pau

My Story: While living near El Recinte Modernista de Sant Pau (a former hospital turned museum; built in the beautiful Modernista architecture style, it is one of nine UNESCO World Heritage sites in the city), I visited the museum's grounds and gardens, and never forgot the scent of their orange groves - so I made it into this perfume.

Notes: Orange, mandarin, bergamot, petitgrain (woody and green), laurel (herbaceous), with a touch of neroli and a whisper of sea fennel, a plant which grows on the coast (I sourced mine from Greece and I sketched it to create the sketch for Mariesme's logo and packaging)

Hero ingredient: Neroli, a precious essential oil extracted from orange blossoms (with a clean, slightly green and herbal citrus scent); the one I chose is from Italy

Botanical notes: Neroli is one of the most expensive essential oils in the world; orange blossoms are hand-picked and it takes 1,000 pounds of flowers to make make one pound of oil.
