Accessible fine fragrance named for moments of the day

About LEDDA

LEDDA is an American fragrance house founded in 2021 by Stephanie Ledda, a beauty creator and perfume collector who turned years of reviewing fragrance into her own brand. The house says it wants to cut through the noise and make fine fragrance accessible.

Each scent carries a number that stands for a time of day and the mood that goes with it. The first, 22 Orris, takes its name from the launch year and 22:00. The debut scents 22 Orris, 18 Vanilla Nera and 14 Isla Coco were co-created, according to the house, with perfumer Frank Voelkl, known for Le Labo's Santal 33.

The current range is eight Eau de Parfums sold in 50 ml bottles with 8 ml travel sizes: 22 Orris, 18 Vanilla Nera, 14 Isla Coco, 20 Bourbon Brûlée, 8 Café Josephine, 16 Scenic Rose, 21 Velvet Ganache and 12 Marina Soleil. The shop also sells body care, candles and discovery sets.

Wearers rate 22 Orris best, with 20 Bourbon Brûlée and 16 Scenic Rose also well liked. The house is aimed at wearers who want modern, trend-led scents at a modest price.
