Tarly and Marco Trusheim are Curly’N’Covered—a colorful and open-minded start-up that produces high-quality hair accessories. At Curly’N’Covered, everything revolves around products that are especially gentle on curls and waves. "We focus on sustainability, appreciation, and high quality. We make products you buy once and enjoy for a long time."

Curly’N’Covered produces in Germany. The seamstresses work in small workshops or are self-employed one-woman businesses. All bamboo and silk fabrics are tested for harmful residues. For fabrics that have prolonged direct contact with skin and hair, the highest priority was given to safety. These fabrics are certified according to a recognized consumer protection label. Most bamboo and wax-print fabrics are sourced within the EU. Quality, price, and certification regarding tested harmful residues led the start-up to source silk from China. So far, it has not been possible to source silk in the required quality and affordable prices from Europe.

Marie Duschek is the founder of dieHaarbanduschi. Marie comes from Fulda, and sewing has been a constant companion since her school days. "Even as a child, I loved sewing with my grandma. Since July 2017, I have been happily married to my husband Lennart. Together we have two charming children, Lieselotte and Fritz, and a small Maltipoo named Lilly. In 2019, I had an unfortunate fall and tore a ligament. At first, it was really annoying, but it gave me time to sew again. Originally, I only wanted to sew headbands for myself—headbands that don’t press or slip. But when my friends loved them so much, the idea for dieHaarbanduschi grew. How did the name come about? My dear husband suggested it as a joke, and I was immediately thrilled!"

All hairbands, headbands, and scrunchies are sewn in Fulda. "We create jobs for seamstresses who want to earn a little extra as young mothers, single parents, approaching retirement, or already retired. The seamstresses can work flexibly from home. Everything is fair, sustainable, and local in and around Fulda."

Franck Salzwedel, founder of Èlisire: "I was born on a warm summer day in France to German parents. I grew up in the countryside and discovered the beauty of nature and the changing seasons. When I was 10 years old, my family moved to Indonesia, and my world had no limits anymore. Bali enriched my senses and became the place I cherished most: colorful, inspiring, and life-changing. Back in France, I studied fashion and realized that my mission was to translate the world of a designer into a fragrance and capture their soul in a bottle.

Élisire Parfums are "Elixirs of Passion." From the very first spray, you can tell that care and quality come with love and imagination. Each fragrance tells its own story and seduces the senses in a unique way; all are bold, multifaceted, profound, and elegant.

Élisire fragrances are exceptional perfumes in high concentration. Made with the finest essences from nature and the most innovative technologies.

Since 1920, Giesen & Forsthoff (Timor) has stood for high-quality craftsmanship from Solingen.

Douglas Little is the visionary founder, perfumer, and creative director behind Heretic Parfum. Fascinated by scents since childhood, he has perfected the craft of fragrance design over decades, creating magical compositions from natural materials.

The brand Heretic Parfum has taken on the challenge of breaking the status quo and creating a new fragrance landscape. With a careful selection of natural plant-based ingredients, vibrant, non-GMO unisex scents are created, dissolved in organic sugarcane alcohol. This preserves the Ayurvedic power of the plant substances in every bottle and invites you to experience the harmonizing effect of nature. The fragrances are produced in small batches, handcrafted according to old perfume traditions in the studio in Los Angeles.

The fragrances themselves are rather light and transparent on the skin, a refreshing departure from the heavy, chemically enhanced perfumes of the traditional industry. Heretic Parfum consciously avoids chemical additives often used to extend shelf life. Instead, they recommend refreshing the scents regularly throughout the day to maintain their vibrant freshness.

ILIA Beauty is a leading Clean Beauty label known for its unique combination of high-quality ingredients, innovative formulations, and modern, minimalist design.

ILIA Beauty focuses on clean, skin-conscious beauty. The brand’s philosophy: skin should look natural and feel the same. With transparency as a guiding principle and color as an expression, ILIA challenges traditional Clean Beauty conventions to create something new with safe and effective formulas. 

Inika Organic represents a new generation of makeup: luxurious, effective, and uncompromisingly natural. The Australian brand is fully dedicated to pure beauty—with decorative cosmetics based on natural ingredients that also meet the highest standards of quality and sustainability. 

The name "Inika" means "little earth" in Sanskrit and embodies the philosophy of founder Tony Rechtmann, namely that true beauty must never come at the expense of health or the environment. Since its founding, Inika Organic has developed into a leading natural cosmetics brand worldwide. The label is especially popular among women who consciously care for their skin but do not want to compromise on their look. Foundations, concealers, eyeshadows, and lipsticks from Inika combine visible performance with nurturing effects. The makeup feels pleasantly light, makes the skin glow, and gives a fresh, well-groomed look—day after day. 

“Let’s rediscover the power of wild plants together,” say Annika Krause and Thorben Stieler, the two founders of Kruut. The young Berlin-based company stands for a step back to nutrient-rich nature and the knowledge of how to use it. Made with values that are often overlooked today: time & dedication.

Wild herbs grow right outside our door and yet are noticed by almost no one. We trample them, pull them out, or mow them down. We have forgotten their healing power. Millennia-old plant knowledge about the native flora and fauna has increasingly disappeared over the last decades. 

We asked ourselves, where is this knowledge today and why don’t we use the power of nature that grows right outside our door? Against this background, we founded Kruut. We want to bring powerful wild herbs back into our modern everyday life. Together with Thorben’s grandfather, we rediscovered the recipe for Oxymel. The wild herb extract consists of three ingredients: raw blossom honey, naturally cloudy apple cider vinegar, and powerful green wild herbs. The ancient Greeks already drank Oxymel and gave the drink its name (“oxy” for sour and “meli” for honey).

Because taking time for yourself is the best time. Looops is a founder-led fragrance workshop based in Elixhausen near Salzburg. Here, Julia Schliefsteiner & Markus Niederfriniger and their team handcraft pure natural scented candles, fragrance sprays, and essential oil blends made from 100% natural ingredients.

Looops is a brand inspired by the breathtaking beauty of nature. The founders are fascinated by the essences of nature and have made it their mission to capture these in their fragrance creations. Their goal: to bring a feeling of comfort and balance into everyday life. "Find your essence" – this message is at the heart of the brand and aims to help people connect more with nature.

Mountain stream, mountain air, forest calm – Looops is all about honest scents from nature, experienced in harmony with the senses. The brand relies on high-quality raw materials that are good for both body and soul: handpicked plant waxes, organic alcohol, and 100% pure natural essential oils that not only smell enchanting but also have a deep, harmonizing effect. This way, Looops ensures that every scent reflects the true essence of nature.

Mad et Len stands for perfumery shaped by craftsmanship. Each creation is made with careful handwork to preserve and highlight the purity of the raw materials. Without flashy marketing promises, the founders Sandra Fuzier and Alexandre Piffaut have focused since 2007 on a consistent respect for nature and the environment. Their raw materials are selected based on origin and quality, while recyclable materials and local craftsmanship find their place in every collection.

The brand invites us to rediscover the art of perfumery by considering every scent note and chord as part of a broader language that appeals to all our senses. Exploring a perfume from Mad Et Len is like walking on little-known paths. It’s up to us to discover the way. The top notes are the first steps. They are inviting, fascinating, and set the tone for the interplay between perfume and skin. Then come the heart notes, like the landscape around us – the further we go, the more hidden details we can discover. The base notes? They are the memories we carry within us, steady and distinctive, but never overwhelming. Like Black Uddù with its unmistakable character, they encourage you to return to discover more and new things.

In the picturesque bay of La Baule on the west coast of France, MIDI12 was founded – a sunscreen brand that meets the highest ecological standards. The founder, Aurélie Ribierre, decided after 15 years of working in major companies in the cosmetics industry to realize her own vision of responsible skincare.

The sun protection products from MIDI12 contain chemical sunscreen filters of the new generation that protect the skin and the environment. The formulations are free from controversial ingredients such as endocrine disruptors, carcinogens, and other harmful chemicals. The products are developed in collaboration with local stakeholders and laboratories and manufactured according to EU regulations without animal testing. The eco-friendly formulations are designed to be compatible with the marine ecosystem. 

Naomi Goodsir is an extraordinary Australian designer who has conquered the fashion and fragrance world with her artistic creations. Originally from Sydney, she spent part of her youth in the rural idyll of New South Wales, surrounded by gentle hills and vast bush landscapes. Early on, she discovered her passion for horseback riding and competed in tournaments: an experience that sharpened her sense of discipline and precision.

She began her career in fashion design and specialized in traditional millinery. Each of her pieces was shaped, sewn, and crafted by hand with the utmost care. Her work is still characterized by this detailed approach today. Her talent soon took her to France, where near Grasse – the world capital of perfume – she took a new creative direction. Since 2012, together with her business partner Renaud Coutaudier, she has been dedicated to creating exquisite niche fragrances. Together they develop distinctive perfumes that bear their artistic signature: bold, unconventional, and of exceptional quality.

Son Venïn is an independent perfume manufactory based in Oslo. The founder of Son Venïn, Dag Laska, has a background in design and a great passion for perfume and sensory experiences. "Our roots lie in the Scandinavian mentality and culture. The scents range from pure and simple to opulent and complex, reflecting the Nordic roots and the clear ethos of the brand."

We create modern and unique formulas for perfume lovers. Our perfumes range from simpler compositions with 30 fragrance components to complex ones with over 70 components. We treat our perfume like a baby. They are all different and will have different lives, but they will always be part of the family. If you like the Nordic lifestyle, you will love our perfumes.

Sure, gender is important, but even more important is that we see people as individuals. Everyone should decide for themselves how they want to smell. Perfume works differently from person to person. Unisex fits our Nordic way of thinking. We want to make sure you smell as good as you look naturally – regardless of gender.

In picturesque South Tyrol, surrounded by breathtaking mountains and diverse flora, the passion for plants was born that would form the foundation for Team Dr Joseph. In this inspiring setting, where nature can be experienced in its purest form, the founder Erb. Dipl. Dr. Joseph Franz discovered his fascination for the wonders of the plant world at a young age.

With inexhaustible curiosity and profound knowledge of plant-based active ingredients, he revolutionized the industry in 1986 by developing the world’s first Hightech Natural Cosmetics®. At a time when the concept of “clean” skincare was still new and unexplored, he laid the foundation for the sustainable, tested, and certified natural cosmetics for which the brand is known today. Dr. Joseph Franz began back then with the production of rinse-off products refined with essential oils.

Subsequently, he began to engage intensively with gemstone cosmetics and quantum biology in cosmetics. In collaboration with Professor Senekowitsch from the University of Graz, he developed an innovative project that combined the principles of holistic natural cosmetics with the findings of quantum science. This creative phase allowed him to deal with a variety of interdisciplinary topics and make exciting discoveries about plant-based active ingredients. The combination of his extensive knowledge and cosmetic expertise formed the foundation for the brand Team Dr Joseph, which he still passionately and devotedly advances today.

Voyages Imaginaires, these perfumes created in complete freedom, invite us to see new horizons and to enchant life anew with poetry, boldness, and desire. They offer us a journey through time and space, through dream and reality, through the past and into the future, with body and soul. 

As a professor at ISIPCA (Perfume School in Versailles), Isabelle Doyen has trained many perfumers, including Francis Kurkdjian and Mathilde Laurent. As a perfumer, she worked for many years with Annick Goutal and never left her side. During this time, she also met her daughter Camille, who is "like a niece" to her.

Camille Goutal was a studio photographer before turning to perfumery. She "uses all her senses at once." In the shared laboratory alongside Isabelle Doyen, she learned to be a “nose.” She has a very visual approach to creating perfumes and has taken on the artistic direction of Voyages Imaginaires. Together with Isabelle, she has created numerous perfumes for Goutal, including Songes, Mon Parfum Chéri, and Ambre Fétiche.

Combining perfumery art with holistic well-being through aromatherapy and energetic healing—that is the idea behind Vyrao. The brand was founded in 2021 by Australian Yasmin Sewell, who, after a long career in the London fashion industry, decided to focus on her passion for holistic wellbeing.

Each fragrance of the brand is not only enriched with essential oils that can influence mood but also carries a specific energetic intention. All the large bottles of the seven unisex fragrances contain a Herkimer diamond crystal, and all candle holders contain a V-talisman, which are charged with energy in Hawaii by the quantum energy healer Louise Mita. These energies can help amplify the fragrance’s intention and enhance feelings of self-love, courage, creativity, mindfulness, sensuality, freedom, protection, or joy.

Waekura founder Mélissa Artis has always had a passion for elegant jewelry. During her online commerce studies, she started buying and selling jewelry from her student apartment. To ensure style and quality standards, she promptly founded her own brand in 2017. And what’s the story behind the brand name Waekura? The word means “flamingo” in Maori. It’s a name that fits her designs, which combine femininity and elegance and invite the wearer on a journey of discovery.

Waekura stands for high-quality jewelry made from recycled materials. Mélissa Artis and her team design trendy pieces in their Paris office that they would buy themselves. But unlike fashion jewelry, Waekura’s pieces are distinguished by high quality—they are made to accompany you daily and for a lifetime.
