The Inspiration

Peace, drawn out of the chaos.

The Apex was composed as a beacon of calm in a turbulent world. Its story imagines an apocalypse under a burning sky, and two robed holy men who step from the flames carrying frankincense, myrrh and nard, a sacred scent so comforting it draws frightened people from hiding and stills even the wild beasts. Where the fragrance passes, the smoke clears and the land begins to grow again.

Hand-composed and finished in Accra, it draws on ancient materials revered across history to create an aura of tranquillity and solace. This is the house at its pinnacle, and the founder’s own personal favourite: dominance, confidence and peace, all at once.

In Motion

How to Wear It

The Ritual

Build from the base

The resins reward a couple of well-placed sprays on pulse points.

Let it calm

Give the frankincense and myrrh time to settle into their serene drydown.

Wear it as your signature

Versatile enough for day or night, all year round.

    I just have to share this — ever since I got the Apex, the compliments have been wild, Charlie!
    I recently met this lady and visited her twice. Over the weekend, we met again and shared a hug. She said, “You always smell so good. Even after you leave, your scent lingers it’s on my pillow, my bed, everywhere.”

    At the office too, my divisional head asked, “Do you have a new perfume collection? You’ve been smelling really nice lately. What fragrance is that?”
    I replied, “Apex by Maison Yussif.”
    And he went, “Oh, that guy!”
    In my head, I was just like yeah, that guy ❤️❤️❤️❤️ my confidence alone Charlie I walk into every space with vim cos I know how nice I smell 💯💯💯

The Perfumer

Why I made This

I built The Apex out of the oldest sacred materials I know, frankincense, myrrh and nard, the ones people have burned for calm and comfort for thousands of years. I wanted a scent that could quiet a room full of noise and fear. This one is the pinnacle of everything I've learned, and the fragrance I reach for myself. It is peace, bottled.
