OUR ORGANISATION

Founded in 1978 by Dora Theophilou, our family-run organisation brings together artistic perfumery, pharmacy, beauty and specialist expertise. Today, we are exclusive distributors of luxury and niche fragrance and beauty brands in Cyprus, nurturing each house's individual identity, heritage and craft.

​

Across two generations of pharmacists and perfumery experts, our commitment remains personal: exceptional products, informed advice and enduring relationships. Our history includes private and bespoke sales, distinctive boutiques and a carefully selected network of authorised retailers.

​

Our specialist divisions span retail, online commerce, services, distribution, business partnerships, logistics, store operations and investment. We are members of the Cyprus Chamber of Commerce and Industry, with a long-term approach to the development of every division.

“There is no word for what we do. Tradition, quality, timeless craft, history, luxury, exclusivity, innovation, modernism.”
