Prin Lomros is a name that inspires awe in the world of niche perfumery today. This talented Thai man has followed a unique path from filmmaker to one of the most talked-about independent perfumers of our time. His story proves that a passion for fragrances can lead to the creation of true masterpieces that conquer the world.
Born and raised in Thailand, Prin absorbed scents from childhood, the first of which were his mother's CK One and the classic Eau de Cologne 4711. Initially, he was drawn to cinema and studied filmmaking. However, a fateful trip to the Cannes Film Festival in France changed everything. Enchanted by the world of scents, he stayed in the country to get a specialized education in perfumery, and then returned to Bangkok to hone his skills at The Perfumer's World.
In 2016, the world saw the debut of Pryn's brand, Pryn Parfum. His first collection of 12 fragrances instantly attracted attention, and compositions such as the sensual Lolita, the bohemian Marcello, and the powerful Rosuerrier quickly became cult classics. It was Rosuerrier that earned the perfumer a place as a finalist in the prestigious Art & Olfaction Awards in 2017. Following this success, Lomros founded two more projects: Prissana, which explores Asian traditions, and the conceptual Strangers Parfumerie.
The master's portfolio includes dozens of works, each with its own story. Fans particularly highlight the fresh and airy Hikari, the cool and woodsy Taiga, and the complex and vibrant Iridescent Sky. His fragrances for the Canadian house Zoologist Perfumes — the melancholic Sloth and the innovative reissue Bat 2020 — are considered among the best in the brand's collection and are hugely popular in the community.
Prin Lomros' signature style is a bold synthesis of cultures and arts. A filmmaker at heart, he often transfers visual images onto the perfumery "canvas." Marcello is an ode to the style of Marcello Mastroianni, while Taiga is inspired by the film The Return. His Thai roots and travels also fuel his creativity: from Thai modular culture in Indium B.O.B. to Japanese aesthetics in Jardin d'Iris. He masterfully works with contrasts, creating fragrances that are both familiar and mysterious.
Pina Lomros' expertise is highly valued around the world. In addition to his fruitful work with Zoologist, he has created fragrances for such respected brands as Austria's Der Duft and Germany's The Fragrance Engineers. Each such collaboration is always an event, as the perfumer brings his unique, recognizable sensuality and intellectual depth to projects, enriching the palette of global niche houses.
