Alissa Sullivan's journey into the world of perfumery is a testament to passion meeting purpose. Growing up in Marin County, California, Alissa was captivated by the transformative power of scent, collecting miniature perfume bottles and cherishing the stories they told. This early fascination led her to pursue formal training at ISIPCA in Versailles, France, a renowned institution for perfumery and cosmetics.
One of their standout creations, "Choux Choux," was inspired by Alissa's French heritage and the delightful pastry choux à la crème. This gourmand fragrance, with notes of salted caramel, citrus peel, and fresh cream, captures the essence of indulgence and comfort. Its release coincided with a broader trend in the beauty industry embracing milky, dessert-inspired scents.
Alissa's approach to perfumery is deeply personal and intuitive. She believes in the power of scent to evoke memories, emotions, and a sense of identity. Through Liis, she aims to offer fragrances that are not just scents but experiences, inviting wearers to connect with their inner selves and the world around them.
