R Parfums   Patina

R Parfums is a brand of artistic niche perfumery, reflecting the passion of Rei Nguyen – a Vietnamese perfume artist, ever since she fell in love with Koudou(*).

The love for the true art of Oriental scents has led Rei to study perfume design and aromatherapy. Inspired by Asian heritage and culture, Rei weaves her own stories into scent, letting her truest emotions, artistic soul, and philosophical musings take shape in each creation.

R Parfums was born from a deep love for the poetry of scent – where craftsmanship and culture intertwine. The brand pursues purity in raw materials and sophistication in every formula, crafting fragrances that reflect Asian heritage and timeless aesthetics through the perfumer’s artistic vision. Each bottle carries its own story, adorned with a handcrafted patina art label perfected over twelve months by local artisans, turning every creation into a piece of living art that embodies authenticity and emotion.
