DL Jenkins, a perfumer who masterfully weaves art with science, was shaped by his upbringing in San Diego and San Francisco, California. Raised by parents from contrasting yet mutually enriching backgrounds, his childhood was a tapestry of aesthetic cultivation and scientific curiosity. His mother, an art teacher and practicing artist, nurtured his sense of beauty and expressive instincts, while his father—a scientist and inventor—instilled in him a reverence for precision and empirical inquiry.
Armed with a multidisciplinary academic foundation in healthcare, international studies, biology, chemistry, and languages, DL’s foray into perfumery was further deepened by his global expeditions. Immersive experiences in Surinam, Zurich, Budapest, and Russia honed his ability to decode cultural subtleties and refine his sensory acumen, allowing him to translate diverse influences into olfactory narratives.
As a board-certified Lifestyle Medicine practitioner with over 18 years of healthcare expertise, he brings a profound understanding of the mind-body connection and the therapeutic potential of scents to his craft. This expertise underscores his approach at Pictura Fragrans, where he fearlessly merges artistic intuition with scientific rigor to create bold, avant-garde perfumes. These fragrances are designed to act as olfactory odysseys, capable of evoking visceral emotions and unlocking dormant memories.
DL Jenkins’s devotion to perfumery is a testament to his belief in scent as a transformative force. Through his work at Pictura Fragrans, he embodies a commitment to holistic wellness, channeling a lifelong passion for integrating diverse influences into innovative, boundary-pushing olfactory experiences that challenge and captivate the senses.
