Jérôme di Marino
A French perfumer joining science and design, immersing himself in place and culture before shifting traditional structures through light and texture.
About Jérôme di Marino
Jérôme di Marino is a French perfumer who joins scientific precision with a designer's eye. He works beyond the language of a brief, entering its landscape, craft, and dress to identify the temperature and texture a scent should hold.
Career
Raised in southern France, di Marino studied science while developing an interest in design and then moved into perfumery. Work within fragrance houses taught him materials and formulation, while projects across fashion and lifestyle built experience translating visual direction into smell. He continues to create internationally from the Paris fine-fragrance world.
Creative Style & Philosophy
He understands traditional patterns, then moves the result slightly away from where convention predicts it will land. Old materials and history are not pasted on as explanation; they are broken into brightness, temperature, powder, leather, and air, then rebuilt for a contemporary distance from skin. Classicism is retained, but light enters from a different angle.
Signature Works
- *Suede Orris* — Iris powder, floral light, and soft leather composed with quiet modernity.
