Scent of Africa

Scent of Africa is a fine fragrance house headquartered in Accra, Ghana.

History
Scent of Africa was founded in 2016 by Tanal Ghandour, marking its debut in the fragrance industry with the release of two distinct fragrances: "For Him" and "For Her” with Marcel Desailly and Oluchi Onweagba as its first brand ambassadors.

Scent of Africa underwent a re-launch in 2022, by introducing the "Eternal Legends Collection" featuring 6 feminine and masculine fragrances, launched as 3 duos. Blending traditional African ingredients with contemporary artistry, the perfumes were meticulously crafted by international perfumers.

The Eternal Legends Collection aims to highlight African culture through stories in African mythology by having each perfume embody a legend whether it be kings, queens, angels or immortal gods.

The Collection's first duo, Rakh and Nefee, was unveiled in March 2022, in Accra, Ghana. Following that, the brand introduced Hagé and Laïka, also in Accra, Ghana, in December 2022. The latest two fragrances Bézi and Bellua were launched in Abidjan, in June 2023.
