The Story
At the heart of Luminaryan lies the story of Leyla and Luca, inseparable best friends whose bond transcended time and space. After Leyla passed away, Luca was determined to celebrate her life and their extraordinary bond.
From that love, Luminaryan was born, a fragrance house inspired by connection, light, and balance.
Their names carried meanings that mirrored their connection:
Leyla, meaning night, embodied the moon’s quiet beauty.
Luca, meaning light, reflected the warmth and radiance of the sun.
Luminaryan draws from this meaning, but it also represents something increasingly rare today: creation rooted in care, intention, and soul.
The word luminaries refers to the two brightest celestial bodies in the sky: the sun and the moon.
For centuries, they have been seen as guiding lights, symbols of balance, life, and illumination.
Distinct, yet perfectly balanced, they illuminated each other’s worlds.
Luminaryan is not just about fragrance.
It is about honoring the connections that shape us and the people who continue to light our paths, even when they are no longer beside us.
Meet Luminaryan Leyla
The first fragrance in the Luminaryan collection is dedicated to Leyla.Inspired by her radiant spirit and her love of rose, Luminaryan Leyla is a fragrance that balances softness and strength, light and depth.
Long associated with beauty, emotion, and timeless elegance, it became the natural heart of the fragrance.
Rather than creating a traditional rose perfume, Luminaryan Leyla reimagines the flower through a modern composition that feels luminous, warm, and contemporary.
Craftsmanship
Luminaryan is a quiet return to craftsmanship. It is about slowing down to create something meaningful, with intention, and with deep respect for tradition.
The fragrance is developed in the South of France, where perfumery is an art passed down through generations.
We collaborate with a family-run perfume house with roots dating back to the early 1900s. Their knowledge and craft have been carried forward over time, refined with care, and preserved through tradition.
Together, we combine traditional French methods with careful formulation, refined balance, and a deep respect for raw materials.
Luminaryan Leyla was created as an Eau de Parfum, a concentration chosen for its balance of presence, longevity, and refinement.

Every element of Luminaryan reflects this commitment to quality.While a colored fragrance can be visually appealing, Luminaryan chooses to avoid artificial coloring and additional preservatives.
Instead, we prioritize the integrity of the formula, ensuring that every decision remains guided by quality.
The outer packaging is designed in collaboration with a South Florida–based artist who personally knew Leyla and Luca.
Each box features an original drawing created exclusively for Luminaryan, bringing a deeply personal and emotional dimension to the brand.
The artwork reflects both the story behind Luminaryan and the bond that inspired it, adding an artistic layer to each piece.
The glass bottle is made in Italy, a country renowned for its craftsmanship in glassmaking.
The cap is crafted in France by artisans who also produce for haute couture houses.
Where We Are Today
We have finalized the bottle design, including its form and cap colors for a first collection of four fragrances, Leyla, Luca, Sun, and Moon.
We are launching with Luminaryan Leyla as our first fragrance, with the rest of the collection to follow.
The fragrance has been finalized, capturing the warmth, emotion, and spirit that inspired it, while remaining deeply personal to each wearer.
This campaign will allow us to move into full production and bring Luminaryan into the world.
As Luminaryan continues to grow, additional support will help us expand our reach and increase production capacity, allowing more people to discover Luminaryan and experience Leyla from the very beginning.
