Collection: Chris Maurice

Christian Carbonnel, also known as Chris Maurice, is one of the most influential and admired figures in modern perfumery. Born into a Spanish dynasty of perfumers, he inherited his passion and knowledge from his grandfather and father, carrying forward a legacy of artistry and innovation.

Known as the “perfumer for warriors,” Christian creates bold, powerful compositions with remarkable sillage—fragrances that announce themselves before the wearer enters the room. His signature style often embraces the richness of amber, oud, vanilla, tonka bean, and his trademark ambrocenide, giving his creations an unmistakable intensity.

Some of his most popular perfumes include Xerjoff Lira, Alexandria II, More Than Words, La Capitale, Tony Iommi Monkey Special, and Fiero. He has also created for prestigious houses such as Nishane, Rance 1795, Santi Burgas, and The Fragrance Kitchen.
