Who is Molly Ray?
Driven to elevate perfumery as an art form and inspired by the natural world, Molly is a perfume designer guided by the mission of ultra-expression through perfume. Her ability to balance aromatic notes is distinctly French both by training and process.
Molly studied natural perfumes and olfactory science guided by Master Perfumers at Grasse Institute of Perfumery (Grasse, France) and advanced perfumery at ISIPCA (Institut supérieur international du parfum, de las cosmétique et de l’aromatique alimentaire). Molly Ray Fragrance, LLC launched in 2016.
She cherishes her experiences in designing bespoke perfumes for individuals, brands, and special events.
For designer Molly, perfume completes daily life, powerfully affecting the pathways of our minds, feelings, memories, and future.
Perfume design is an art and a passion, unlocking the possibilities of the core human connection to fragrance and olfactory exploration.
“Perfume was the first love of my life and remains my constant adventure. How thrilling it is to know that there will always be a new perfume to discover and experience, both for myself and in designing for others.”
“I remember my grandmother’s dresser and the bottle of French perfume that sat on top. Used only for the most special occasions, I was entranced by a whiff from that beautiful glass bottle. This remains one my strongest, most pleasurable childhood memories. Perfume does this. It can uplift, mesmerize, romance, soothe and inspire. A day without perfume is a day without color.”
