Livshits (Livschitz) Efim Solomonovich (15 June 1882, Uman, Ukraine) — perfumer.

Efim Livshits received a home education and, after studying accounting, moved to Kyiv in 1899. In 1903 he moved to Chișinău, where he continued working as an accountant. In 1913 Livshits moved to Odessa. Unable to find work in his profession, he worked as a press operator at the Odessa Mechanical Plant.

At the beginning of 1917, he moved back to Chișinău and resumed his accounting duties. In 1917, after the Romanian occupation of Bessarabia, Livshits, due to his lack of Romanian language skills and the general stagnation in trade, was forced to leave his profession and took work as a timber procurer at a provincial sawmill.

In 1933, he moved to Bucharest. There he began studying perfumery and cosmetics production and worked as a chemist at local enterprises. In 1948, Livshits submitted an application to relocate permanently to the USSR. From 1948, together with his wife Sara Livshits (Halperin) (1888, Chișinău) and sons Moisei Livshits (1905, Chișinău) and Isaak Livshits (1917, Chișinău),he moved to Riga.
