Prin Lomros is a self-taught perfumer from southern Thailand who discovered his love for scent as a child, often wearing his mother's perfumes. With no universities in Thailand offering perfumery courses, he initially pursued his other passion, filmmaking, earning a degree in film. A visit to Grasse during the Cannes Film Festival proved transformative, as short perfumery courses there reignited his desire to create fragrances.
Returning to Thailand, Lomros joined The Perfumer's World in Bangkok to hone his craft before launching his own brands: Pryn Parfum, Strangers Parfumerie, and Parfum Prissana, later unified under the name PRIN. His artisan work earned him the Art and Olfaction Award from the Institute of Art and Olfaction in both 2017 and 2018, establishing him as one of Asia's most respected independent perfumers.
Lomros approaches perfume creation the way a filmmaker constructs a scene: he begins by envisioning a moving image complete with colors, sounds, and textures, then interprets each element through notes and accords. His creations often incorporate Asian influences, including
incense from Thai temples and tropical ingredients that reflect his heritage.
His collaboration with Zoologist Perfumes has produced some of the brand's most acclaimed compositions.
Bat captures the nocturnal world of tropical fruit bats through a rich tapestry of overripe fruits, damp caves, and humid jungle air.
Civet is a bold animalic composition that evokes the wild musk of its namesake.
Hyrax explores the sun-baked African landscape through resinous, leathery accords, while
Rhinoceros channels raw power through smoky, earthy notes of
leather,
tobacco, and
oud. Each fragrance demonstrates Lomros's gift for transporting the wearer into vivid, cinematic olfactory worlds.
