Hiram Green is a self-taught Canadian perfumer who works exclusively with natural ingredients. His perfumes are easily distinguishable by their intensity, opulence and expressiveness.
He launched his first perfume, Moon Bloom, in 2013.
In 2019, his perfume Hyde won the Art & Olfaction Artisan award. It should be noted that these awards are based on the assumption that the jury never knows what the perfume smells like, or the brand or name of the perfume.
This award celebrates excellence in independent, artisanal and experimental perfumery. He lives and works in Gouda, the Netherlands.
Hiram Green expresses his creativity through scent and aims to surprise and delight people with his fragrances.
The initial inspiration to create a perfume is random and can come from anything: a song, a painting or a journey. In an often lengthy process, abstract ideas, emotions and memories slowly melt into a story. He creates hundreds of drafts before settling on an “olfactory story” that best expresses his initial inspiration.
His fragrances are entirely handcrafted, created and bottled by Hiram Green, in small batches in his studio.
After blending the ingredients, the perfumes are aged for at least three months before bottling.
All his perfumes are made with 100% natural and sustainable, ethically sourced, GMO-free and cruelty-free ingredients. It does not use any animal-derived ingredients, except for the beeswax in Slowdive.
All fragrances are based on organic grain alcohol, and the intense colours of their perfumes come from their ingredients. No colourants are ever added.
