NEW YORK, April 27, 2026
NEW YORK, April 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Maesa, the next-gen beauty incubator, is expanding its fragrance portfolio with STRING THEORY – a revolutionary new fragrance brand using Phero-Mimetic™ Technology to enhance desire and ignite real attraction and connection for all, available exclusively at Amazon on April 15th.
STRING THEORY taps into a growing desire for real, authentic connection. Rooted in the “invisible string theory” – a popular concept that suggests there’s an unseen thread connecting us to those we’re meant to meet – an invisible force that draws us to those we will desire, love or discover. As burnout from digital-first connections, endless swiping, romantic ghosting and superficial interaction grows, more consumers are rethinking how connection happens today – craving in real-life experiences that offer emotionally present, authentic and genuinely human connections.
“We’re increasingly seeing the effects of loneliness and dating fatigue on today’s consumer,” says Dana Steinfeld, Chief Innovation & Blue Sky Officer for Maesa. “As consumers turn to fragrance with emotional benefits, the time was right to launch a brand designed to support authentic connection. With STRING THEORY, we’re leveraging science-backed fragrance innovation to offer modern and desirable solutions for attraction.”
Designed to layer and leave a long-lasting scent impression, each fragrance is powered by signature Phero-Mimetic™ Technology, a scientifically proven method designed to mimic the effect of pheromones to enhance confidence, sensuality and attraction.
“Launching our first exclusive brand in partnership with Amazon marks a meaningful milestone for Maesa as we continue to build the next generation of brand incubation,” says Matt Kellman, GM of String Theory. “STRING THEORY was born from clear consumer insight, identified through fragrance search behavior, and represents our commitment to combining data and creativity to create brands that truly resonate.”
String Theory’s first collection includes four products – EDPs and rollerballs – for Him and for Her:
Feral Haze for Him
Notes of dark rum, oakwood, vanilla caviar, cognac vapor
EDP, $44.97 (1.7 Fl. Oz)
