The Scent of What Stays
We focus entirely on what remains after, believing that what truly matters is often unnoticed until it is gone.
We craft with care and sensitivity, removing what is unnecessary so that what remains carries meaning.
Every decision is deliberate, guided by the understanding that creation is never neutral.
What we make is shaped not only by intention, but also by a quiet awareness of the world from which it draws.
The Story Begins
JK, also known as Jang Kều, is a Vietnamese founder whose work has long been rooted in fragrance, community, and the natural world. For over two decades, she has worked within the perfume industry while leading environmental and social initiatives through the Sông Foundation. Bringing these two worlds together, she founded UCC Europe - a company guided by care, responsibility, and sensitivity toward the world around us.
Each creation is shaped with quiet intention - crafted with care, emotional depth, and a deep attunement to memory, humanity, and nature.
Founder's Note
"I grew up surrounded by nature and love - among fields, rivers, trees, and the quiet beauty of Northern Vietnam. Those landscapes shaped not only my memories but also the way I understand value: that the most meaningful things are often the least visible - the scent of rain on earth, a sense of belonging, the silence that stays with us long after a moment has passed.
Jillian was born from that awareness.
As a founder and creative director, I never wanted Jillian to be a house that creates perfumes simply to impress or occupy space. Instead, I envisioned a world of scent that sharpens attention - to memory, emotion, nature, and the beauty we risk forgetting when we move too quickly through life.
Jillian is not merely a collection of fragrances.
It is a way of noticing.
A way of caring for what deserves to remain."
Scents with Intentions
Established by UCC Europe, Jillian is a contemporary perfume house creating scents that sharpen awareness of what remains. We believe fragrance is not meant to perform or demand attention, but to be discovered quietly. Guided by the belief that value comes from attention, not excess, we craft with care and sensitivity, removing what is unnecessary so that what remains carries meaning.
Beyond perfume, Jillian extends its world of scent into everyday rituals through candles and body care creations. Developed in collaboration with perfumers based in Zurich and Paris, each composition is shaped with intention, precision, and a deep awareness of the world from which it draws.

All Things Visible and Invisible
Perception
Fragrance is an instrument of attention. We approach art as a way of observing the world, capturing subtle nuances and preserving the memories that remain
Distillation
True sophistication lies in subtraction. We reject loud projection and excess, practicing intentional distillation in our formulations and design so that what remains carries profound meaning
Responsibility
Recognizing that creation is never neutral, we practice absolute care in what we take and maintain an active, silent responsibility to restore the ecosystems we draw from
