In an interview with L’Officiel, Perello discussed her personal inspiration for her perfume, which is called Maria Perello. “I really wanted to create a fragrance that smells of happiness—my main inspiration was my happy memories. It is light but memorable, fresh yet sophisticated, soft but strong enough to last the entire day without being too overpowering. Delicate yet mighty. I also wanted it to give a sense of elegance and youthfulness,” she said.

In the case of Nadal, he began the journey like her, wanting a single perfume. He then releasized he needed two fragrances to reflect his personality. “Both fragrances perfectly correspond to his lifestyle. Rafael Nadal No. 1 is fresh, light, and ideal for when he is playing. No. 2 is slightly bolder and zestier; he likes to wear it off the court,” she said.

All frangrances have inspirations from their origins, including the Mediterranean and Mallorca. Perello claims it’s the first fragrance that actually feels like herself. “I was never completely satisfied with the ones I wore in the past, as I felt like they didn’t fully reflect me. This is why I am very happy to now have my own bespoke Henry Jacques perfume.”
