My Story Begins with a Little Bug

The Water Brand is first and foremost a company that was launched as the result of an unpleasant personal experience. Here is my story …

You know those little beasts that sneak into our kitchens and invade our house at night. Yes, that's it – cockroaches! Well, it was the start of a long fight for me and my body, but one that led to an entrepreneurial revelation many years down the line.

Exactly 6 years ago, following a cockroach infestation in my apartment in Barcelona, ​​we called in a professional to eliminate the insects. The same day, my roommates and I returned to the apartment, and a few hours later, I start to feel itching, tingling, and swelling all over my body.

I didn't want to leave my house anymore to go to class or anywhere else where I would be faced with other people. I completely lost my self-confidence, and I couldn't understand what my body was telling me and why the swelling and itching never stopped.

Doctors simply observed that I had symptoms of "hypersensitivity" but no real solution to the issue was provided.

This ordeal lasted for more than 4 months until the day a doctor diagnosed me with poisoning from a powerful insecticide. They told me that the only solution was to eliminate it from my body.

In January 2021, I finally stopped taking antihistamines. My skin is gradually starting to recover. However, I still experience the after-effects of this ordeal. My skin is extremely sensitive, my body can no longer tolerate seawater (and I am an avid diver), and I regularly feel tingling. My skin has dried out a lot, and above all, I no longer use cosmetics that contain alcohol because my skin dries up and becomes even itchier.

A PERFUME JOURNEY.  

In March 2019, I joined a high-end perfume house, and I started to travel frequently around the world, particularly to the Middle East, to showcase our fragrance collection for women and men. I quickly became fascinated by their culture and their unique and pure approach to creating perfume for women with solutions that were often alcohol-free.

I GOT FIRED- AND THEN WHAT ? 

In May 2020, during the health crisis, I lost my job, but the desire to become an entrepreneur and launch a business took over. I decided to embark on a crazy adventure – creating a perfumery offering an alternative to traditional perfumes with alcohol-free perfumes.
