Bertrand Duchaufour

Country: France

Bertrand Duchaufour’s now-legendary career began in the mid-80’s at the very center of the perfume universe, Grasse, where he trained as a new employee of the Lautier Florasynth group. In the quarter-century since, Duchaufour has become a true rock star of the niche perfume world- a creative dynamo whose only creative “limitation” of any kind is a refusal to compromise on quality or vision. This commitment has led to a career full of triumphs, bestsellers, and LuckyScent favorites, from Comme des Garçons Incense’s Avignon and Kyoto, to Amouage’s Jubilation XXV, to a 10-year run as L’Artisan’s “Perfumer in Residence,” an unprecedented honor that has borne countless fruits including Dzongkha, Nuit de Tubereuse, Timbuktu, Vanille Absoluement, and Fleur de Liane, amongst many others. While themes of wild, natural vegetation and animalic accords are often noted, Duchaufour seems unrestrained by any one style or trademark, opting instead to jump boldly into new challenges, which more often than not result in new successes. A true master of modern perfume, we here at LuckyScent are thrilled to bring his accomplishments directly to you.
