About Capsule Parfumerie

Capsule Parfumerie has been exploring and honoring the art of handmade perfume since 2012. Founded by husband and wife team Mike and Linda Sivrican— who together share two decades of fragrance experience — the Los Angeles-based fragrance house draws from botanical, desert, coastal, and cosmic cues to offer an evolving array of singular scents and brand offerings. Linda serves as Capsule’s perfumer, composing complex, captivating scents inspired by a uniquely fresh, California perspective. All of Capsule’s premium creations are formulated in-house, and created with meticulous attention given to clean beauty practices as well as vegan and cruelty-free standards.  House brands include Fiele Fragrances, Litoralle Aromatica, Capsule Parfums, Saguara Perfumes, Parallax Olfactory, Musc et Madame, and Aureum Botanica. Custom projects, turnkey services and brand partnerships are offered through the Bespoke division. In 2016, the company opened Orris Perfumery — their retail boutique and showroom — in the West Hollywood neighborhood. There, it showcased the Capsule house brands — and hosted experiential workshops and gatherings for all interested in joining and expanding the olfactory conversation. In 2020, the decision was made to share the sensory world under one umbrella, and Orris was renamed Capsule Parfumerie in order to spotlight all their products and services in one place. In 2021, after 5 years on Melrose, Capsule Parfumerie found a new home in LA’s historic Chinatown and relocated their boutique and studio to Chinatown Central Plaza.

About Linda Sivrican

Linda Sivrican is an award-winning perfumer and formulator at Capsule Parfumerie in Los Angeles, California. Sivrican’s Vietnamese name, Thuy Huong, translates to ‘gentle fragrance.’ She suspects her mother — herself a chef and floral designer — must have known that her daughter’s destiny would entwine with the world of perfume.

Since 2012, Linda has composed and formulated a range of small batch, hand-blended, premium scents under the Capsule Parfumerie umbrella. Her work has been lauded by industry experts and publications such as L'Officiel, Vogue, Oprah, Allure, and the Wall Street Journal. Each brand — 7 to date, with an eighth on the way — prompts a special opportunity for her to draw upon aspects of her spirit and sensibility, ranging from the coastal to the cosmic. In her work, Linda is especially drawn to potent raw materials and the discovery of new aromatic frontiers, and is forever inspired by the diversity of her surroundings. As with any art practice, she melds precision with the freedom to explore and evolve.

In September 2020, Linda won The Art & Olfaction 2020 Artisan Award for her original creation, Nimbis, an abstract fragrance from the Parallax Olfactory brand she describes as “the scent of falling meteors”.
