- Aton Gerasimov Perfumer:
Aton Gerasimov is a remarkable figure in the world of perfumery. He is the founder of Aton Perfumes, a new perfume house that has made waves in the industry. Aton is the younger step - brother of Russian Adam.
As a child, Aton Gerasimov was hyperactive, full of energy and restless, which led to less - than - ideal academic performance. His passion lay in sports, especially extreme sports. However, his life took a turn when he realized he needed a different direction. Encouraged by his older brother Adam, he ventured into the world of perfumery. He first honed his skills by creating some initial fragrances. One of his creations, a scent with a leathery quinoline overdose, patchouli, oak moss, and tobacco, caught Adam's attention. Adam suggested replacing some components with higher - quality, more expensive, and natural ones, and the resulting fragrance, "Manly", was a success. It was released in the Areej le Dore collection in 2021 as a collaboration between the brothers.
Building on the success of "Manly", in 2022, Aton founded Aton Perfumes. His brand's debut was marked by a trio of scents on March 26, 2022: Roxbury, Patchouli Lave, and Bright Lights. Roxbury, with its vintage - leaning style, Patchouli Lave, which some might argue is more of a cashmeran musk scent despite its name, and Bright Lights, which, along with Patchouli Lave, is said to be very modern in style. These first three fragrances are available in online stores like Lucky Scent and Osswald NYC.
In 2024, Aton Perfumes continued to expand its portfolio with the release of a new fragrance, Animalia. Aton Gerasimov, with his unique journey and growing brand, is steadily making a name for himself in the artisanal and niche perfume scene, offering scents that blend creativity with a deep - seated passion for the craft of perfumery.
