Perfumer credited by Goldfield & Banks for Pacific Rock Moss, the house's first composition, which he signed with Carine Certain Boin around an Australian coastal moss.
Career and creations
François Merle-Baudoin has been part of the Goldfield & Banks story from the very start. With Carine Certain Boin, he created Pacific Rock Moss, the house's first formula, launched in 2016 and now one of its best sellers; for its tenth anniversary the house reissued it in a collector's bottle, with the formula unchanged.
This aromatic aquatic fragrance, inspired by Australia's south coast, puts Australian coastal moss at its heart, surrounded by lemon, clary sage and geranium, on a base of cedarwood and white musk.
The house also credits him with Desert Rosewood, a spicy amber inspired by Australia's Central Highlands, where Australian desert rosewood and buddha wood meet mandarin, cardamom, benzoin, vanilla and patchouli.
His training and the fragrance company he works for are not disclosed by the house.
