The Sensory Delights Of Perfumer Maya Njie’s Home
A weekly newsletter of home and interior inspiration, delivered to your inbox: themodernhouse.social/o1f
“Like my fragrances, this house is a mix of modern and nostalgic,” said Maya Njie during our first visit to her home in Mudchute on the Isle of Dogs in 2020. The self-taught perfumer has spent more than a decade decorating her 1930s semi-detached house with pieces from different periods and places: a 1960s Utensilo wall organiser, a screenprint by the Russian artist Kazmir Malevich and a globe from a charity shop in Sweden are among the many treasures that fill her trove. Naturally, then, Maya makes a most suitable subject for our film series Seven Wonders.

I love her near the door collection of last minute possible forgottens
I love everything about Maya's aesthetic. It's like a reflection of her temperament 🌹
What an enchanting woman and artist. Her passion for life jumps off the screen. Very inspiring
I especially love the Q & A format of this interview. Please do more of these!
Love the eclectic yet harmonious curation of meaningful items. She’s created a beautiful welcoming and authentic home, no doubt the aroma is wonderful too! Love her personal style also.

I love Maya's home. What a perfect match!
What's her sign??
Did we watch different versions of Tom and Jerry? I googled it and I don’t remember the character represented in this painting.

Maybe you watched a later version of Tom and Jerry where she was edited out/no longer used. I certainly remember the Mammy character from the 80s T & J cartoons. We never saw her face... Try googling 'Tom & Jerry Mammy'.

if she would be my partner the flat, house would be devided for placing our furniture plus neutral area 😂
Bet it smells musky
