Pernoire is a Swiss niche perfume house founded in 2020 by longtime friends Robin Dünner and Nico Mannino. Based in Basel, Pernoire produces limited, unique and high-quality fragrances with an innovative approach. Their vision is the olfactory expression of the personality.
"We don't produce pleasant scents. We create olfactory personalities.”
The character of each person consists of several aspects and has a complex structure. Pernoire emphasizes these situational aspects with fragrances that highlight the current feeling and one’s true self.

Pernoire consists of "per noi" and "noire". ”Per noi" means "for us" in Italian. "For us”, because they create perfumes for a small circle of fragrance connoisseurs, their community. "For us" also represents the olfactory underlining of "our personalities." In the design they use mainly black tones, which is why they integrated the word "noire" ("black" in French).
