The Fragrance Design Studio

"As fragrance industry professionals, we (Nathan Motylinski and Cecile Hua) have seen far too many great fragrances and concepts get sacrificed for corporate constraints that focus more on what's ON the bottle than what's IN the bottle. With our combined experience and passion for fragrance, we decided to BE the change we wanted to see and now showcase our own original concepts with two luxury fragrance collections - Spring/Summer and Autumn/Winter - each year. So join us in exploring the infinite world of luxury fragrance - without compromise." Nathan Motylinski, entrepreneur and owner of The Fragrance Design Studio (previously known as Le Cherche Midi), knows how to transform concepts and ideas into reality. Nathan holds several fragrance-related design and utility patents. In addition to running The Fragrance Design Studio, he assists companies of all sizes with fragrance and product development.
