David Chieze

Master of aromatic narratives

David Chieze is a contemporary visionary perfumer whose name has become synonymous with bold, conceptual, and intellectually rich fragrances. His journey in the world of scents is a constant exploration of the boundaries of olfactory art, where each composition becomes a narrative. Unlike many of his colleagues who strive for mass recognition, Chieze works in avant-garde and niche perfumery, creating fragrances for those who seek not just a pleasant scent, but a deep emotional or philosophical experience.

A journey through the world of niche brands

David Chies' career is closely intertwined with a number of iconic independent houses, each of which values his unique style. He has successfully collaborated with such iconic brands as Mark Buxton Perfumes, Atelier PMP, Scherk, and Olfactive Pharmacy. His long-standing partnership with the innovative house of Folie à Plusieurs has been particularly fruitful, for which he has created several iconic pieces that have become the benchmark for artistic perfumery.

Iconic fragrances and cult creations

Among David Chies's best perfumes, fans and experts particularly highlight several works. The quintessence of his dark, tobacco-leather style is the cult Tars Über Mann for Scherk — a powerful, almost architectural fragrance. For Folie à Plusieurs, he created lyrical and multi-layered stories: the urban meditation Kafka On The Shore, the geometric abstraction Aspects of 2, and the intellectual quest Find Me No.2/Seek. Equally interesting are his works in collaboration with the brand .Oddity — the hypnotic Resonant and the sensual Naked Dance.

Philosophical style and signature style

David Chies' style is a synthesis of literature, philosophy, and contemporary art, translated into the language of aromatic notes. His perfume compositions are rarely simple or unambiguous; they are created for reflection. The master works virtuosically with contrasts, combining smoky, resinous, or leathery accords with transparent mineral, aquatic, or pure woody notes. His arsenal includes the ability to create scents that feel like textures: rough, glossy, velvety, or cold like metal.

Recognition and dialogue with the audience

Chez's work is highly respected in the niche perfume community. Fragrances such as Free or the fresh, herbal Salvia for Olfactive Pharmacy regularly receive high ratings and rave reviews. Users note their exceptional longevity, complexity of development, and ability to evoke vivid associations. Each new creation by the perfumer becomes the subject of lively discussion, as it promises not just a new scent, but a new dimension in the understanding of the possibilities of perfumery as a high art.
