Our Story
Discovering the World in Fragrances
"I first envisaged Perris Monte Carlo while I was traveling. Looking back, I don’t know where exactly I was. Perhaps in the Middle East, when I was searching for the essence of roses. Or maybe while I was walking through the lavender fields of Provence.
What really matters though is the reason behind that first idea. And the reason is simple. I realized that I had the privilege of experiencing the traditional world of perfumes, which is still very much alive today. That I had been able to learn from great masters. That by observing their work, I was privileged to be a direct heir to a wonderful tradition. And I didn’t want all this tradition to be lost.
Bringing the wonders of the culture of perfumes to today’s world – a world so often focused on the here and now – was a considerable endeavor. It was necessary to consider not only the essences themselves, but also how we can educate others about one’s sense of smell, so that everyone can appreciate them.
With this ambition, which I pursued with the humility of a craftsman and the recklessness of a dreamer, Perris Monte Carlo was born." Gian Luca Perris
Perris Monte Carlo was founded as a place halfway between the old laboratory with its handed-down secrets, and a research center open to innovation.
