Duftanker MGO Duftmanufaktur

Discover the captivating world of MGO Duftmanufaktur, a unique perfume brand founded by the passionate scent enthusiast Hans Georg Staudt. Born in 1956, Staudt's lifelong fascination with fragrances led him to the art of perfume making through his background in psychology. The brand's logo, the "Duftanker," pays homage to his journey, serving as a reminder of his aromatic origins. Initially creating fragrances solely for personal use, Staudt later ventured into crafting perfumes in a cosmetic sense. With over 300 fragrances created since 2010, he decided to share some of his most refined creations with the world, encouraged by the positive feedback from friends. MGO Duftmanufaktur's philosophy is unique – Staudt bottles only scents that he personally enjoys, creating a niche within a niche. However, the brand also offers custom-made Bespoke perfumes tailored to individual preferences. Each fragrance is produced in limited quantities, ensuring exclusivity and uniqueness. Once the raw materials are depleted, the affected scents become irreplaceable. Staudt's love for exquisite scents is evident in his meticulous approach and dedication to sourcing top-notch ingredients. With access to over 1,500 ingredients worldwide, he emphasizes using natural elements to infuse his perfumes with an authentic "soul." His frequent journeys to the Oriental region further inspire his creations, with most fragrances bearing a hint of this exotic allure. A true artisan, Staudt's commitment to perfection is unwavering. Despite his demanding career as a management consultant, he dedicates every spare moment to perfecting his fragrances. From sourcing raw materials and crafting essences to designing bottles and branding, Staudt personally oversees every aspect of the production process, ensuring the highest quality standards.
