Our Why

Hello! I'm Jessi Park, the founder of Elysian Parfum, established in 2021 as a heartfelt tribute to my late sister. Elysian Parfum was created from a place of deep love, memory, overcoming grief, and healing. During my sister’s long, painful battle with cancer, we often bonded over our shared love of perfume—scent became a form of comfort, connection, and escape. Her cherished fragrance, Pretty in Purple by Juicy Couture, inspired the inception of this business.

After she passed, I began blending fragrances as a way to hold onto her presence. The name comes from combining her children’s names together, Elysia and Evan. A double entendre, it also means “of heaven” which feels like I have my sister’s blessing. Perfume holds a special place in my heart, reminiscent of one of our final moments together.

‎

I strive to create fragrances that explore the mystery, dreams, and soul of life - scents that feel like whispers from another world. Many of them are inspired by fairytales, the ethereal, and the unknown - the spaces between memory and magic. Whether it’s the warmth of a bedtime tea, the hush of an old letter, or the feeling of something sacred and unseen, every bottle is a story, and every story is meant to be felt.

Truly Artisanal - Every bottle of Elysian Parfum is a labor of love, handcrafted in Atlanta with the finest ingredients, then hand-bottled and packaged by a member of our family.

At our company, we craft everything in-house, making us a rare perfumer-owned brand in an industry often dominated by big corporations or creative directors who outsource the creation process.

From the initial formulation to bottling, labeling, and wrapping, every step is done by us, ensuring quality and care in every detail. Here’s a snapshot of my husband, Milot, and me at the New You Beauty Awards, where we proudly won Best New Fragrance of 2024 for Lavender Milk Tea. Milot handles all the heavy lifting and even models for the brand, making it a true family effort.

Hand-Crafted

This is hay absolute blending with other exquisite ingredients. The process is a mesmerizing dance of scents, and I find it endlessly fascinating and beautiful. If you're curious to see more behind-the-scenes magic, head over to our Instagram @elysianparfums

Hand-Filled

Every bottle is hand-filled with love and care - it's a labor of passion that we take pride in. One day, we hope to grow big enough to invest in a filling machine, but for now, we're cherishing the hands-on process that makes each fragrance so special.

Perfumer

I make everything! Every scent is a labor of love, from the first blend to the final bottle. Gourmands have a special place in my heart, but I'm always excited to push boundaries and create unique combinations that surprise and delight. I truly hope you enjoy these creations as much as I enjoy making them for you.
