Jamila Asgarova

Jamila runs the Gazelli brand and the international development of other ranges within Gazelli Group’s portfolio.

From childhood Jamila had a curious and creative spirit and an ability to inspire others beyond their expectations. She grew up to share both her mother’s business acumen and her passion for wellbeing, beauty and the arts. With a degree in Business Strategy, Visual Communication and Marketing, Jamila joined Gazelli Group in 2004. Her ambition, creativity and innovative ideas introduced exciting new directions and an energy that facilitated the expansion of Gazelli Group internationally to Europe and beyond.

Jamila’s goal was to create a revolutionary, performance-led skincare range that would bring her mother’s research, expertise and formulations to a global audience. Gazelli Skincare made its much anticipated European debut in September 2011 in London’s most prestigious department store, Harrods.

Next came Gazelli House, which launched in Walton Street, in London’s prestigious South Kensington, in 2014. A sanctuary of wellbeing in an inviting and exquisitely designed space, Gazelli House embodies Dr Hamzayeva’s holistic approach, enabling guests to re-engage not just with their skin but with their mind, body and emotions, achieving their best possible self under the guidance of Gazelli’s face, body and wellbeing experts.

From 2020, Jamila has yet been steering Gazelli House to further its digital world too, building an international network and community of experts that can reach out and offer support online, as we increasingly find ourselves at home as the world around us remains unpredictable.
