In the early Greek language, ‘nostos’ referred to a longing to return home, often after a long journey or battle. Over time, the word evolved and began to be associated with sweetness. It’s from the root word nostos that we get the term nostalgia.

Nostos is a sensory company harnessing the complex sweetness of nostalgia by celebrating a homecoming to memory through fragrance. Employing the efforts of renowned perfumer Marissa Zappas, the central project of Nostos is to reimagine familiar sensory experiences as wearable scents that connect us to the past, to memory, and to each other.
