Humięcki & Graef Perfumes

Humiecki & Graef, a Cologne-based perfume brand, was founded by communication designers Tobias Müksch and Sebastian Fischenich, who have both worked as fashion designers for well-known fashion and cosmetics houses such as Lacroix, Nina Ricci, Lancaster, Guerlain, and Clarins. They are supported in their artisanal endeavors by perfumers Christophe Laudamiel and Christophe Hornetz, affectionately known as "the two Christophers".

The brand name Humiecki & Graef pays homage to the grandmothers who greatly influenced Müksch and Fischenich. In 2007, they reinvented the traditional fragrance structure by introducing the innovative "star" concept, which does not follow the typical fragrance progression but instead builds up notes simultaneously. Each Humiecki & Graef perfume is dedicated to a specific emotion, capturing the essence of human feelings through evocative scents that paint vivid images and patterns. This artistic approach, described by the founders as "cubism in bottles" has garnered praise in the niche and luxury fragrance market for its unique and well-crafted compositions. Among their notable fragrances are Grief ("Skarb"), Anger ("Askew"), Devotion ("Gesture"), Desire ("Eau Radieuse"), Joy ("Multiple Rouge"), Mother's Pride ("Clemency"), and Contentment ("Bosque"). Their creations have been lauded for their creativity and ability to translate emotions into olfactory experiences.
