The Inspiration Behind Baklava

Baklava is a traditional layered pastry associated with Greek and other Mediterranean and Middle Eastern culinary traditions. Known for its delicate filo dough, nuts, and sweet syrup or honey, baklava is celebrated for its rich flavors and distinctive aroma.

Ariana & Evans created Baklava as a tribute to the founder's grandmother on the Greek side of the family, affectionately known as Yaya, whose homemade baklava inspired the fragrance.

The composition draws on the recognizable aromas of the dessert, combining honey, walnuts, pistachio, brown sugar, and a pastry accord with orange blossom, lemon, and sandalwood.

Rather than simply creating a sweet fragrance, Baklava aims to capture the warmth, nostalgia, and personal memories associated with a cherished family recipe.
