If you’ve ever dreamed of having your own custom fragrance that is specifically unique to you and you alone, MAYA Fragrances was created by Alana Shlenker to do just that. Her curated collection of scents are enigmatically engineered to never smell the same on anyone and the formulas completely change as they interact with your own unique body chemistry.

Previously only available in limited batches at exclusive Los Angeles boutiques, MAYA was a best-kept secret that had developed a cult-like following—but now Shlenker is excited to share her scent secret with the world. Here’s how it works: first you apply MAYA Base Perfume Oil, which is designed to adjust to your body chemistry and the environmental elements. It can be worn by itself or layered with any fragrance or essential oil to enhance the scent, extend wear time, and distinguish it from anyone else wearing the same fragrance.

Celebrate National Fragrance Day With These Amazing Scents

Next, apply MAYA 1 Perfume Oil on top to create a unique and sophisticated personalized perfume. It will instantly transport you to a tropical island with its beach-inspired scent. MAYA Base and MAYA 1 come in delicately decorated glass bottles with roll-on applicators (perfect for travel) that are specifically designed to glide over pulse points where the blood vessels are closest to skin and emanate heat, which helps the fragrance waft up from skin to create a subtly scented aura around you. Both bottles are available in limited-edition larger sizes as well.

“MAYA Fragrances operates on the belief that every person deserves their own signature scent, one that is truly personalized,” says Shlenker. “The fragrances are soft, wearable, and sexy as they adapt to enhance your natural skin chemistry. Unlike some overwhelming fragrances on the market, MAYA doesn’t wear you—you wear MAYA.”
