Apothia

Apothia is a cosmetic and perfumery brand that belongs to Ron Robinson, Inc. The first Ron Robinson boutique was opened at Fred Segal on Melrose Avenue, L.A. in 1978. Robinson himself had previously worked at Fred Segal as a salesman, buyer and then Vice President. Today, Ron Robinson boutiques are located on Melrose Avenue in Los Angeles and on Broadway in Santa Monica as part of the Fred Segal centers. In the mid 1980s, Robinson expanded his boutique with the beauty department named Apothia. Apothia is named after blending of the words “apothecary” and “utopia”. Ron Robinson launched the first fragrance named IF for the Apothia brand in 2000. The fragrance was very successful and it led Robinson to expand and create Apothia Los Angeles, a line of fine fragrances and award-winning interior aromatics. Today, it has spread worldwide. Designer Apothia has 6 perfumes in our fragrance base. The earliest edition was created in 2005 and the newest is from 2021. Apothia fragrances were made in collaboration with perfumers Yann Vasnier, Stephen Nilsen and Rayda Vega.
