Meet the ANTHÉSTÉ Founder: A Journey from Chemistry to Slow Beauty
Interview with Marinda Scaramanga
Marinda Scaramanga, artist, mother, and founder of ANTHÉSTÉ, reveals how art, ancestral wisdom, and scientific precision converge in her exclusive skincare rituals.
Why did you decide to create ANTHÉSTÉ?
To create ANTHÉSTÉ was to honour my heritage and reclaim the intimacy of beauty.
For years, I moved between worlds: the meticulous realm of art restoration and the fast lanes of global logistics. But it was during pregnancy—when I slowed down and truly listened to my body—that the seed for ANTHÉSTÉ was planted.
I could no longer accept synthetic, diluted skincare. I needed something real. Potent. Sacred. I turned to the Greek botanicals of my childhood, ingredients my grandmother once used with reverence. I began formulating emulsions and elixirs for myself, with my extracts collected in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat then for friends, and soon, for a discreet circle of women seeking more than skincare—they longed for ritual.
ANTHÉSTÉ is for them: a return to refinement, intention, and sensual self-care.
What is the philosophy of the brand and why?
ANTHÉSTÉ is rooted in ritual, rarity, and reverence.
We follow the rhythm of the seasons, not market trends. Every formula is freshly blended in small batches to honour the vitality of nature’s most powerful botanicals—from mastiha of Chios to sun-infused grapes seeds.
We believe skincare is not a task—it is a pause. A moment to reconnect to your essence through touch, texture, scent, and stillness. That’s why our products are designed as multisensory experiences that deliver results, with no compromise on purity or luxury.
In a world obsessed with speed, ANTHÉSTÉ offers slowness as sophistication.
What has been the biggest challenge when starting ANTHÉSTÉ?
Defending slowness in a fast world.
Launching a brand that refuses mass production and seasonal overconsumption is not the easiest path—but it is the only one I would take. Each ANTHÉSTÉ release is made like a rare perfume: limited in number, designed with soul, and delivered with elegance.
The challenge has been holding space for exclusivity while educating the modern consumer on why it matters—why waiting lists exist, why each drop is finite, and why true luxury cannot be rushed.
But this is also where our deepest value lies. ANTHÉSTÉ is not for everyone. And that’s exactly the point.
Explore the ANTHÉSTÉ collection to find products that speak to you – and enjoy them until you’ve used every last drop.
