aequill perfumes celebrate scent in all its artistic manifestations. Created in collaboration with our artists-in-residence, each eau de parfum collection explores fragrance as a creative medium — translating sound, memory, atmosphere and emotion into scent. Developed in our East London studio, these artist-led perfumes invite you to experience fragrance differently.

All perfumes are eau de parfum, created in limited runs from our East London studio.
TIME is a perfume collection exploring past, present and future through fragrance and perfume.
Created by London-based performance and theatre artist Mengting Zhuo, the range captures the emotional texture of time: memory, anticipation and presence translated into scent.
FUTURE
Future is composed for moments that have not yet arrived — for dreamers, possibility and openness.
Opening with bergamot, pink pepper and lemon, the fragrance unfolds into heliotrope, orange blossom and ylang ylang before settling into white musk, hay and tonka bean.
NOW
Now captures the beauty of the present moment.
Green notes, grapefruit and pink pepper create a fresh opening before soft iris and honey emerge alongside sandalwood and vanilla.
PAST
Past explores nostalgia without regret.
Smoky citrus woods open into jasmine, basil and warm amber before resting on moss, cedarwood and cypress.
SOUND is a fragrance collection inspired by listening, featuring sound-led compositions.
Created by London sound artist Ecka Mordecai during her aequill residency, these perfumes translate soundscapes into scent through deep listening and emotional response.
SOUND 1
Soft spring rain. Steam rising from green tea. Quiet comfort.
Fresh juniper and mandarin drift above honeysuckle and cardamom before grounding into earthy vetiver and white musk.
SOUND 2
Birdsong, sunlight and flowers exploding into summer.
Sicilian citrus, saffron and mimosa brighten the opening before jasmine, magnolia and amber create warmth and movement.
SOUND 3
Distance. Silence. Magnetic presence.
Bergamot and grapefruit soften into neroli, rose wood and precious woods layered with amber, myrrh and white musk.
