Meet La Parfumerie Team
We are a team of passionate individuals who strives to make a difference in this world.
Founder of La Parfumerie
Viktoriya Martynova
The idea to establish La Parfumerie was born when Viktoriya began her search for a perfect chocolate fragrance. However, the mass production market failed to satisfy her desire. That's when she turned to niche fragrances and "voila". The endless possibilities and extravagant varieties sparked her curiosity and determined her future path in the world of selective perfume. From that moment on, she continues to surprise her customers by carefully selected high-end fragrances, holding unusual but very beautiful notes in each bottle.
Viktoriya studied at Florida State University. At her sales classes, she was one of the top ten students. After graduation, she worked in Chanel learning everything about fashion, beauty, and perfume.
In 2017 she founded La Parfumerie which has become one of the fastest-growing brands in Raleigh.
