Lubin: Fashion x Fragrance Spanning Four Centuries

-

LUBIN | fashion + fragrance

In 1798 Pierre François LUBIN opened a perfumery on Rue Sainte Anne in Paris. Paris was enjoying a period of cultural and political liberation and LUBIN was at its epicentre; providing perfumes to the Incroyables and Merveilleuses – the French fashion-forward, counter-culture movement. Thus began an illustrious career catering for the cognoscenti that so far has spanned four centuries and, thanks to the brand’s directional stewardship, is destined to is destined to continue delighting and intriguing fashion-informed for years to come.

We can see from our exclusive customer list that LUBIN fragrances are as pertinent with today's influencers  as they were with the Muscadins: LUBIN's early adopters; the trend-setters so named because of the distinctive ingredient in their LUBIN scent.

The Holy Trinity: Perfumes Made by Monks

The following feature by Lawrence Roullier White appears in the September issue of Absolutely Magazine. Brent Leonesio of Smell Bent will be in store on Thursday 25th September - come and say 'hello'.  Traditionally perfumery has always been a difficult skill to learn, expertise and knowledge was handed down through the family so it was very much a closed shop. Budding perfumers could seek entry level work at one of the great fragrances houses and hope to learn the ropes on the job or train as apprentices with a master artisan perfumer but opportunities were few. Things opened up a little when the Givaudan Perfumery School in France opened in 1946. The school claims to be responsible for training the noses behind one third of fragrances on sale today, including Chanel’s Jean Polge and Hermes’ Jean-Claude Ellena, mastermind behind my beloved Cologne Bigarade for Editions Frederic Malle.
