WHO IS ARYAT MAKAI
Aryat Makai is a creative shaping his own lane through modeling, music, and personal expression. His introduction to modeling began when close friends Ocion and Kahari gave him the opportunity to do his first photoshoot. That experience opened the door for him to work with The Caf, a creative space that helped him step deeper into the fashion world.

He grew up skating and deeply inspired by underground culture. Artists like Duwap Kaine and Tay-K were some of the first he listened to. Some of his new favorite artists include Laser Dim and Glock40Spazz. These influences have shaped his taste, attitude, and vision for creativity.

Spending time at YOUmedia Downtown exposed him to more creatives and pushed him toward producing music. Being around people who were constantly working on something inspired him to explore beat-making. Already having producers in his family and the setup at home, he began crafting his own sound under the name Nocomrades. For him, beat-making is about intuition. It’s less about trends and more about what feels right.

STYLE AND MODELING JOURNEY
Aryat is selective about the shoots he does. He looks for opportunities that align with his taste and reflect who he is. His modeling career gained momentum when he walked in a show for Dertbag in February 2024. The connection stuck. He continued working with the brand for two more projects, and founder Phillip even built a full shoot around him.

In March 2025, Aryat officially signed to Celeste Management. After seeing an open call posted on Instagram for unsigned models, he messaged to say he was interested. Within a week, he took the train into the city and made it happen.

CREATIVE PHILOSOPHY
Whether it’s modeling or music, Aryat believes creativity should come naturally. The goal is not to copy or chase what's popular but to build something that feels honest. He brings that same mindset into every project he takes on.

FRAGRANCE LINE: NOIRVELLE
Aryat recently introduced his own fragrance line, Noirvelle, created in collaboration with his close friend Travis Brown. The collection reflects his personal style, one that is confident, thoughtful, and intentional. Noirvelle is more than a scent. It is about presence, energy, and the quiet power of subtle detail.

Indulge in refined allure
A veil of sophistication and a trace of the unknown. Noirvelle creates colognes for those who captivate without saying a word.

Midnight Reverie
Inspired by La Nuit de l’Homme by Yves Saint Laurent
Inside this 30ml bottle is a scent that lingers like a deep thought late at night. Midnight Reverie is cool, clean, and effortlessly captivating. It blends the bold freshness of the wild with an enigmatic depth, creating an experience that mirrors the quiet allure of dusk.

Drawing from the dark tones of indigo and charcoal, it opens with crisp and invigorating top notes before unfolding into a deeper, moodier heart. As the scent settles, a soft warmth rises beneath the cool surface, offering a perfectly balanced blend of mystery and refinement.

Midnight Reverie offers a modern twist on classic masculinity. It reflects raw confidence and is made for those who thrive in what is unseen and undefined. It does not demand attention. It naturally commands it.
This release is currently sold out.

Whispered Trace
Inspired by Baccarat Rouge 540
This 30ml bottle contains a scent as subtle as a whispered secret. Whispered Trace is soft, intriguing, and deeply inviting.

Designed as a unisex fragrance, it moves through quiet contrasts including the smoky depth of tobacco, the golden sweetness of honey, and the calming softness of lavender. These elements blend with grace, never overwhelming but instead gently enveloping.

Balanced and intentional, it lingers just long enough to draw someone in before fading into a warm, curious trace. Whispered Trace does not announce itself. It waits for the right moment and the right person to notice.

Refined and approachable, intimate and quietly bold, this is a scent for those who understand that true presence comes from intention, not volume.

GOALS AND VISION
Aryat’s goal is to be one of the greats in modeling. He wants to be recognized not just for his look but for how he approaches the craft and how he brings ideas to life. He continues to grow across multiple creative lanes, always working to stay true to himself while expanding his reach.
