Who We Are

ART BRÜT - Creating in the Heart of Europe

Our perfumes are the result of an unbridled, almost childlike curiosity that escapes the rules of convention. We flirt with dilettantism, that wonderful incompleteness that frees us. We want to dissolve boundaries, not create them. For us, luxury is not a dirty word. Our perfumes are not elitist and are intended to provide access - an open door for all those who are ready to walk through it. We strive for a sensory experience that reveals itself to independent personalities without suffocating them in sameness. We are decidedly "unestablished". Our goal is not the mere confirmation of the expected, but the unexpected astonishment - a relentless game with the imaginable.

Berlin

From my earliest childhood, scents shaped my senses and formed my thoughts. Later, when I began my career in beauty and fashion photography, I recognized an even deeper truth in the art of perfume: the essence of freedom that defies With ART BRÜT we create fragrances that not only have to be perceived, but also reflected – a luxury that does not consist of separation, but of the joy of the experience itself. These fragrances are not just attitudes, they are a rebellion against the ordinary, a silent call that seeks to overcome the limits of existence.

Coming from the digital, perfect world, I co-founded ART BRÜT to return to the imperfect, analogue world. For me, fragrances are more than fleeting compositions - they open doors to emotions, memories and unspoken stories. At ART BRÜT we create perfumes that celebrate imperfection, inspired by the depth of life. Our fragrances are raw, honest and unpolished - an antidote to superficiality. They are a call to discover yourself and have the courage to be different.

DIRECTOR STRATEGY AND FINANCE

Düsseldorf

As a business lawyer with a passion for financing, I have been involved with start-ups for years. My focus? The development of tailor-made strategies. I am not a loner in business. I am attracted to the exchange with other creative minds in order to implement disruptive concepts together. This allows me to feel entrepreneurial freedom - as extraordinary as the fragrances of ART BRÜT.
