Somens

Founded in Barcelona by Georgina Ripollès, Somens dates its beginnings to 2020, when it introduced the Reminiscence collection. Ripollès comes from a family of editors and publicists, and the brand carries that creative lineage through words, design, art and perfume. After studying advertising and public relations at Barcelona University, living in Paris and deepening her knowledge of cultures, oils, essences and perfumes, she returned to Barcelona. Somens explores life journeys, origins, childhood memories, migration and cultural exchange, presenting fragrance as a way to describe personal evolution. Reminiscence is the brand’s foundational fragrance concept, connecting ancestral origins with present life and the future. Arena, identified as Somens’s first perfume, links Arabic culture with the Spanish peninsula. Somens also introduced Legends, a collection based on fantasy and fiction; a 2024 report identified Atlantis, launched in 2023, as its only fragrance at that time.
