Our Story
Our story begins in sunny Los Angeles where Founder and CEO, Chinelo Okonkwo, grew up and began her career in the beauty industry. After leaving to pursue her MBA at Northwestern University, she returned to her beloved home state and settled in Northern California. Chinelo worked in corporate strategy and e-commerce, but her true love for creating warm, inviting spaces with fragrance inspired the development of Luxey Maison.
Chinelo was frustrated that luxury home fragrance brands weren't eco-friendly and that the "natural" brands lacked inspiring scents. She wanted a better option and set out to create something different. Her passion for developing unique scents led her to study the art and science of fragrance in the world capital of perfume, Grasse, France. Chinelo received technical training and certification from premier perfumery school, Cinquième Sens, which has trained numerous fragrance professionals at leading prestige beauty brands including Chanel and Dior.
Chinelo's focus on premium, eco-friendly ingredients and fine craftsmanship goes into the creation of every Luxey Maison product. Sustainability is a core mission for our brand. Our packaging is consciously designed to be reused from the glass vessel and candle box to the compostable packing chips we use to carefully ship your order.
Your home and personal space are sacred and deserve to be personalized with luxe signature scents. We hope you enjoy our handcrafted products and share the world of Luxey Maison with those you love.
