Sifa Mutesi

Founder & Creative Director

Sifa Mutesi is the visionary founder and creative director of Sifaé Parfums. With a deep passion for the art of perfumery and a commitment to showcasing African excellence on the global stage, Sifa has created a brand that embodies luxury, sophistication, and cultural pride.

Born and raised in Rwanda, Sifa's journey into the world of fragrance began with a fascination for scent as a powerful form of self-expression. After studying perfumery and luxury brand management internationally, she returned to Kigali with a mission: to create world-class fragrances that honor her heritage while setting new standards in the industry.

Each Sifaé creation reflects Sifa's meticulous attention to detail, her dedication to quality, and her belief that fragrance is more than just a product—it's an experience, a memory, and a celebration of life's most precious moments.

"Every fragrance tells a story worth celebrating"

A Legacy of Elegance

Sifaé Parfums was born from a profound appreciation for the art of perfumery and a desire to share the beauty of African craftsmanship with the world. Our name, derived from the Swahili word for “praise” and “celebration,” embodies our mission to create fragrances worthy of life’s most precious moments.

Founded in Kigali, Rwanda—a city known for its innovation, beauty, and resilience—we draw inspiration from our homeland’s rich culture and natural splendor. Every bottle of Sifaé carries within it the spirit of African excellence.

Our master perfumers blend centuries-old techniques with contemporary innovation, sourcing the world’s finest ingredients to create scents that transcend time and place. From the first spray to the lasting dry-down, each Sifaé fragrance tells a story of sophistication, passion, and uncompromising quality.
