Back in 2016, a fragrance went viral as Rihanna’s favourite—an almost dessert-like warm vanilla-marshmallow scent called Love Don’t Be Shy by Kilian. For founder and perfumer, Kilian Hennessy, every one of his brews is rooted in a personal story or memory. "Angel’s Share, for example, was my olfactory memory of the Hennessy Cognac Cellars. I have a story for every scent." Kilian's fragrances, all unisex, are designed around moods and moments rather than specific wearers.
