The inspiration behind the name Kusi Cosmopolitan integrates ancient wisdom and art into a context of modernity and interconnectedness
KUSI is Quechua for βjoyfulβ. Chosen out of love for my Peruvian heritage and a fascination with wisdom originating from ancient civilizations.
With regard to well-being, Andean philosophy revolves around a concept of integral centeredness and a unique vision of time/space regarding the past, the present, and the future. For a more pragmatic interpretation, we can look at it as the center point of a triangle that represents a balanced state of physical, mental, and spiritual health within the four natural elements (fire, water, air, earth).
Cosmopolitan represents the beauty created through the integration of modernity and evolution, a reminder that we are all interconnected, and that the whole is worth much more than the individual parts.


Fragrance is moving beyond something we wear into something we practice. Through scent, sound, and intentional ritual, conscious beauty is beginning to explore how sensory experiences can help us access emotional states, reconnect with ourselves, and return to who we are becoming.
