Bortnikoff

Bortnikoff was founded in Thailand in 2018, bringing together the Far East and Eastern Europe in a unique way. Perhaps this is because the two main creators behind its fragrances are from Russia and Thailand. Based in Thailand, this perfume house stands out among the many others. Another equally important fact is that its exceptional perfume compositions are made with some of the rarest and most expensive natural ingredients in the world. The company distills many of the oils itself, making the fragrances truly unique. Each composition contains between 95% and 100% natural ingredients. Dmitry Bortnikoff, the brand's founder, is an architect and perfumer by profession. Dmitry spent a long time in Asia, where he fell completely in love with its unique nature and wonderful scents. This helped him develop his sense of smell, and he discovered the art of distillation. Using floral and botanical materials, he began creating exclusive perfumes. He soon discovered that distillation, like design and architecture, is an art in which the materials used play a major role. In 2013, he founded Feel-Oud, a company that distills oils from some of the world's most expensive Agarwood and sandalwood. This experience led him to create his own perfume brand, combining traditional distillation techniques used in the 19th century with innovative approaches to create modern masterpieces of exceptional strength, as well as beautiful additions that delighted everyone who wore them and those around them. The fragrances by Bortnikoff offer an exceptional olfactory experience, a true touch of nature's raw beauty, expressed through pure oils of the highest quality. The journey into the world of Bortnikoff's sensual compositions began with Feel-Oud, where great attention was paid to the ingredients from the outset. The goal was to find the rarest and most unusual materials to work with. He searched for and found materials such as Beaver Castoreum from Russia, wild Vietnamese Agarwood butter, real white ambergris from the Atlantic sperm whale, an Indonesian white hybrid rose, and more. In short, these are recipes that families in the Far East's perfume trade kept secret for generations. He also decided that all Bortnikoff perfumes would be released in limited editions, not as a nod to fashion, but because our natural perfumes contain between 85% and 100% natural ingredients. A composition that cannot be repeated, a scent that cannot be recreated. Just as no two trees can be found with the same scent, and distilled in exactly the same way. His aspiration was for each piece to have its own unique aroma and to smell different depending on the season, amount of rainfall, and air temperature during flowering. His perfumes contain as many as 50 ingredients, making it difficult, if not impossible, to recreate the same fragrance. This means that every collection is unique. This complexity, combined with the high cost of the ingredients, ensures that perfume connoisseurs can be confident they are getting the very best quality and the highest standards, making Bortnikoff the ultimate brand. Since the founding of Bortnikoff, he has distilled 39 perfumes in his fragrance base, working in collaboration with perfumer Rajesh Balkrishnan. One of his new fragrances is Chypre du Nord, a Chypre fragrance for women and men. This is a new fragrance, launched in 2020. The nose behind it is, of course, Dmitry Bortnikoff. The top notes are Orange and Bergamot; the middle notes are peach and Nutmeg; the base notes are oakmoss, Birch tar, natural Musk, Benzoin, Tonka bean, and Cedar.
