Custom Essence was founded by Felix Buccellato and Raman Patel. Their unique blend of artistic talent and scientific knowledge has earned them a reputation as two of the foremost developers of fragrances and their applications. Their vision has been to marry the world-class perfumery expertise and quality of the large, multinational fragrance houses with the service and attention of a “boutique”.
