Few would dare to launch a niche perfume brand in a country with virtually no fragrance industry, like Latvia. Yet for Arturs Petersons, founder of Nōrtean, it was a dream he was determined to realize. 

Tucked within the prestigious perfume halls of Harrods, Aqualis London is a reflection of its founder’s soul. Steyn Grobler, a South African industry veteran with over a decade of experience at some of the world’s most prestigious perfume houses, has poured that experience—and his passion—into Aqualis London. It is a story of passion, precision, and deeply personal vision.
