ELOREA is a Modern Fragrance Brand Inspired by Korea's Rich Culture
Laura McQuarrie — January 20, 2022 — Fashion
Korea's long history of scent informed ELOREA, a modern fragrance brand from co-founders Wonny Lee and Su min Park. The brand's new fragrance collection takes cues from the four elements that are represented on the Korean flag and the formulas share the experience of Korean ingredients from various regions. There's Fire, Water, Earth and Heaven, and all four eau de parfums are genderless. While Heaven is subtle and sweet with romantic notes of rose, pink pepper, uplifting bergamot, passionfruit musk and vanilla, the brand was surprised to see that many men are gravitating towards its unique aroma.
Already, the modern fragrance brand is seeing incredible success; in five minutes during the initial soft launch, the exclusive fragrances sold out.
