Jérôme Epinette is a renowned French perfumer, known for his work with several high-profile fragrance houses such as Byredo, Atelier Cologne, Frapin, and Olfactive Studio, among others. He was born and raised in Burgundy, a famous wine region of France, and developed a passion for the complexities of winemaking from an early age. However, he also had a strong interest in perfumery, which led him to pursue a career in this field.

After earning a Master's degree in Biochemistry from Burgundy University in Dijon, France, Epinette attended the Grasse Institute of Perfumery in Grasse, where he honed his skills in the art of fragrance creation. In 2003, he joined the Paris office of Robertet, a leading fragrance and flavor company, and was part of the team that launched the New York Creative Center in 2006. He now lives and works in New York City.

Epinette has gained recognition for his use of exceptional quality naturals, which he elegantly blends with the finest synthetics to create unique and captivating fragrances. He has designed numerous best-selling and critically acclaimed perfumes for brands ranging from mainstream giants like Victoria’s Secret and L’Occitane en Provence to niche stalwarts like Atelier Cologne and Luckyscent’s Decennial line. However, he is perhaps best known for his collaboration with Olivia Giacobetti and Ben Gorham in creating the successful Byredo line, where he personally designed most of the fragrances.

Epinette's talents have earned him a reputation as one of the most sought-after noses in the industry, and he has been approached by several fragrance houses to create their signature scents. He recently turned his talents to the self-proclaimed "upstart" fragrance house of Floral Street, where he created the Electric Rhubarb fragrance in collaboration with the Chelsea Flower Show.

Epinette's approach to fragrance creation is characterized by his attention to detail, his use of mood boards, and the importance he places on following the perfume's evolution on the skin. He has a signature style that is marked by his use of patchouli and sandalwood, which he blends in different ways to create a unique olfactory experience.

Floral Woody is an obligatory floral domination which is enriched with woody and/or musky accords in this group, which adds depth and warmth, as well as powdery nuances to the whole composition.
