Maison de Parfum · San Francisco
Every great lovebegins as a scent.
Six eaux de parfum, each composed around a single moment of longing — the glance, the letter, the sleepless night. Six chapters of a love affair, told in fragrance.
li·mer·ence / ˈlɪmərəns / — noun
The involuntary state of being completely carried away by another — the racing heart, the replayed conversation, the scent that lingers long after they have gone.
Limerence Parfums was founded on a simple belief: that perfume is the most faithful keeper of memory. Our compositions are built in San Francisco from the rarest naturals, macerated for eight weeks, and bottled by hand in numbered flacons.

- Russian Hill, San Francisco — 1937
Pressed between the pages of a diary, a rose from the night they parted. Its petals have turned the color of claret; its perfume has only deepened.

The Atelier
Made slowly, on purpose
01
Rare naturals
Orris butter aged three years, Turkish rose absolute, Haitian vetiver — sourced from growers we know by name.
02
Slow maceration
Every batch rests for eight weeks before filtration, so each accord can settle into its truest form.
03
Numbered by hand
Each flacon is filled, sealed and numbered in our San Francisco atelier. No two batches are ever rushed.
