Tunis · United States

Objects, scent,
textile & ritual.

A modern house for exceptional Tunisian fragrance, body, textiles, serving ware, and objects—curated for the American market.

The Mediterranean, considered
01 · Our point of view

Exceptional Tunisia, deliberately discovered.

Tunisia brings together regional ingredients, sophisticated fragrance traditions, textile capability, metalwork, ceramics, and a deep culture of making. We translate that strength into disciplined U.S. positioning, distribution, and growth.

01

Curated

Selected for quality, provenance, differentiation, and commercial potential—not novelty alone.

02

Measured

Assortments informed by demand, pricing, landed economics, and repeat-purchase potential.

03

Protected

Premium brands require disciplined pricing, selective distribution, and careful storytelling.

04

Built to scale

Controlled validation grows into DTC, wholesale, hospitality, and strategic distribution.

02 · Initial focus

Four categories.
One point of view.

An intentionally narrow launch assortment, focused where Tunisian quality and provenance create a compelling American retail proposition.

01

Fragrance & Body

Niche parfum, oud, neroli, botanical body care, artisan soaps, and distinctive regional scent profiles.

02

Linens & Textiles

Foutas, bath and beach towels, table linens, throws, and high-quality woven goods.

03

Table & Gathering

Hand-hammered copper, selected olive wood, ceramics, trays, bowls, and objects made for gathering.

04

Limited Editions

Small-run objects and collaborations that make the assortment feel collected, never catalogued.

03 · Why Menzel

A house for living, making & gathering.

In the historic settlement landscape of Djerba, the menzel is more than a dwelling. It is a household place of making, cultivation, and gathering. Menzel House carries that spirit into a contemporary American context.

04 · For Tunisian brands
