About AENTOS
AENTOS is a fragrance brand based in Shanghai, China. Drawing on the soil, moss, wood and humid air of Asian forests, its perfumes and home fragrances bring an awareness of nature into everyday life.
History
The brand has developed fragrance products since 2022, with Sarah Ching and Astrid Chan as its co-founders. Sarah grew up near the forests outside Vancouver, trained in culinary arts in Paris, and later began making candles while working in Asia’s fashion industry. In July 2025, AENTOS made the first international presentation of its debut perfume collection, Deep Root, Bold Journey, at Grasse Perfume Week.
Philosophy & Signature Style
Slowing down and paying attention to oneself and the natural world guide the house’s approach. Working with MANE perfumers including Maxime Exler, AENTOS combines natural and synthetic fragrance ingredients to explore different facets of the forest. It also emphasizes responsibility for the social and environmental impact of its business, becoming a Certified B Corporation in February 2026.
Iconic Fragrances
La Racine Sous Peau layers fig leaf, rose and moss in a fragrance intended to stay close to the skin on quiet nights. Grounded draws on prayers to the earth through woods and incense, while Sheng celebrates emerging life with a soft, warm interpretation of mint.
