  • Full Disclosure: We list every single note and ingredient used in our fragrances—no hidden "fragrance" umbrella terms or mystery blends.

  • Crafted with Fine Naturals & Safe Synthetics: Our scents are built on a foundation of essential oils, absolutes, CO₂ extracts, and safe, vetted synthetics for authentic scent depth and complexity.

Supporting Women’s Reproductive Health

Our mission goes beyond "clean" beauty; we are intentionally formulated to support women's wellness.

  • Designed by an RN: Founded by a Registered Nurse with firsthand experience in women's health, our perfumes are intentionally crafted with science-backed safety.

  • Targeted Support: Our formulas strictly avoid endocrine disruptors and synthetic irritants, offering support for women facing conditions like PCOS, fibroids, breast cysts, and hormone imbalances.

  • Cycle-Inspired Scents: Each fragrance is thoughtfully aligned with the phases of a woman’s menstrual cycle to enhance emotional, physical, and sensual well-being throughout the month.

  • Centering Minority Women: Women of color experience the highest rates of reproductive health issues and are often overlooked in the clean beauty space. Marieli Stone was created to change that, offering safe, luxurious fragrances designed for the women most affected.

"Fragrance should never be a risk."
— Ann Pierre, Registered Nurse & Founder of Marieli Stone


Hi, I’m Ann Pierre, founder of Marieli Stone, and my journey with fragrance began in childhood. I loved anything that smelled good—lotions, soaps, oils, and especially perfume (wild story below). My mom was my earliest inspiration. She wore perfume often, and to me, it was her invisible signature. One day, she gifted me my very first bottle: Red Door by Elizabeth Arden. That scent stayed with me.

Now for the story. When I was just a baby, I got into my mom’s stash of scented lotions and rubbed them all over my tiny body! What followed was my first harsh lesson: I broke out in a full-body rash. It was painful and uncomfortable, and that’s when my family first realized just how sensitive I was to fragrance.

As I grew, I realized I had a gift—a very sensitive nose. I could smell everything. I could pick out the specific perfumes people wore at church or school. It became my secret superpower, and it made me curious about how fragrances were made and what gave them their emotional pull.

Years later, I learned that many of the beautiful fragrances I admired were filled with toxic ingredients that weren’t just irritating, but harmful. Around the same time, I was diagnosed with breast cysts and a fibroadenoma and that diagnosis shook me. It didn’t just catapult me into prioritizing my health—it lit a fire in me to create something better: a line of clean, safe perfumes that didn’t sacrifice beauty for wellness.

Marieli Stone was born out of that mission.

As a nurse with my Bachelor’s of Science in Nursing and someone who has worked closely with women facing reproductive health challenges, I’ve seen firsthand how devastating these issues can be. I also know how important it is to feel beautiful, feminine, and whole in your own skin. I wanted to create a fragrance experience that supports that feeling—not compromises it.

At Marieli Stone, I am intentional about every ingredient we use. Every scent is crafted to be luxurious, non-toxic, and safe so you can indulge without worry. Our motto, Elegance in every breath—Safe, beautiful, yours, is more than a tagline. It’s a promise from me to you. Because you deserve fragrance that loves you back.
