The Fragrance Design Studio

As professionals in the fragrance industry, Nathan Motylinski and Cecile Hua have witnessed numerous exceptional fragrances and innovative concepts being compromised to suit corporate constraints that prioritize the packaging over the product itself. Driven by their extensive experience and unwavering passion for fragrances, they have taken it upon themselves to be the catalyst for change. Presenting their own original concepts, they have introduced two luxury fragrance collections – Spring/Summer and Autumn/Winter – each year. Together, they invite you to join them in exploring the boundless world of luxury fragrance without any compromises.
