Sophia-Marie Vottari is the visionary founder and creative director behind By.Vottari. Her journey to creating a fragrance brand that embodies sustainability, storytelling, and personal connection is as inspiring as the scents she crafts.

In 2016, at just 24 years old, Sophia-Marie left her home in Europe and ventured to Australia, seeking new opportunities and experiences. Arriving in a country where she knew no one and didn’t yet speak the language, she embraced the challenge with courage and determination. Her travels around Australia exposed her to its diverse landscapes, cultures, and people, sparking a deep love for the country that she now calls home.

While the journey was filled with excitement, being so far from home also brought moments of homesickness. In these times, Sophia-Marie found herself drawn to the power of fragrances. Scents have the unique ability to transport us back to cherished memories, and for her, they became a way to connect with her roots while embracing the future.

This passion for the emotive power of scent, combined with her commitment to sustainability and a desire to create something meaningful, led her to launch By.Vottari. The brand reflects her belief in crafting fragrances that are kind to both the environment and the people who wear them. Free from synthetics and chemicals, By.Vottari scents are designed to evoke emotions, tell stories, and celebrate individuality.

Sophia-Marie’s journey is a testament to the power of following one’s instincts, embracing independence, and creating a life full of meaningful experiences. She pours her heart into every fragrance, ensuring each one is a reflection of her memories, dreams, and values.

Through By.Vottari, Sophia-Marie invites you to embark on a sensory journey—one that’s filled with authenticity, beauty, and a touch of wanderlust.

“With love,
Sophia-Marie Vottari”
