Jonathan Blanc is a French perfumery house founded by a man whose story began long before perfume. The latest generation in a line of exceptional leatherworkers, Jonathan Blanc grew up surrounded by precious leathers. It is this heritage of beauty and rarity that structures everything he does. It was almost by accident that he discovered oud wood, a mystical wood revered for centuries in the East. He became an importer of oud wood, supplying perfumers and connoisseurs. Two years spent traveling the Emirates gave him a new perspective: that of seeing French savoir-faire from the outside, from a world where noble raw materials reign supreme. This is how he created, with the perfumers, Adrien Lacape, "Délicieuse Crème Brûlée," signed by Adrien Lacape, opens with caramel and brown sugar before melting into deep Madagascar vanilla and tonka bean. In 2025, Jonathan Blanc will innovate with "Neige de Koh Samui," entrusted to Christian Carbonnel, the master perfumer, by bringing together tropical fruits—mango, passionfruit, watermelon—which then settle on a milky heart of rice pudding and coconut, with a caramel vanilla base. These are gourmand, precise perfumes that bear the imprint of a man for whom material has never been abstract.
