Founded by siblings Sean and Sara Panton, vitruvi truly is a family company. The first collections were built from their apartment, where they hand-filled and hand-parcelled every single order. Growing in this way meant that the inspiration for vitruvi products came from close connections to their customers and community. Now, alongside an incredibly talented group of individuals, Sean and Sara lead a team that operates based on these same initial values. The focus behind everything at vitruvi is to create home fragrance products that enhance every mood of your dynamic life.
Vitruvi was founded by siblings Sean and Sara Panton. Growing up in a small farming community on the west coast of Canada, Sean and Sara were introduced to a natural way of life at an early age. This appreciation for nature, health and wellbeing stuck with them when they left home—Sara to pursue a degree in Global Health, while Sean went to business school. In university, Sean and Sara started a website that they’d work on after studying in the evenings. The focus was on uncovering wellness and beauty rituals from around the world, which was inspired by Sara’s travels to Morocco and Kenya before she started medical school. From there, Sara and Sean began blending their own oils and the focus shifted to creating essential oil products that they and their friends could use and afford. With that, vitruvi was born. Officially founded in 2015, Vitruvi products include essential oils, oil diffusers, face and body mists, and roll on blends. The company offers its products for personal and home collections. The first collections were built from their apartment, where they hand-filled and hand-parcelled every single order. For many retailers, including Sephora, Goop, Nordstrom, and Anthropologie, Vitruvi is the first essential oils company they have carried. It is now carried by over 300 retailers embracing the mainstream wellness trend.
