Jacques Flori is a French perfumer who initially studied medicine and pursued a passion for yachting before falling in love with perfumery under the mentorship of Jean Mober, owner of the fragrance house Robertet.
Over his career he has created for Amouage, Etro, Jovoy Paris, Parfums de Marly, and Xerjoff, becoming especially sought-after for his mastery of complex incense compositions, including Amouage's The Library Collection Opus IV and Jovoy Paris's La Liturgie des Heures. His love of the sea, mountains, and horses often surfaces in his work, and he is known for his cheerful willingness to mentor other perfumers at Robertet.
