A flamboyant and baroque sensibility is present in all of the AEDES DE VENUSTAS scents, which tend to center on rare botanicals and incense. Gerstner and Bradl’s shorthand with the perfumers allows them the freedom to experiment with bold, highly contemporary accords and finished scents that often center around a single vegetal muse.

AEDES DE VENUSTAS means Temple of Beauty in Latin, and it is with a reverence for those who make fine art with scent that the brand was born in 2012. It is a collaboration between Gerstner, Bradl, and their friends, who just happen to be the best noses in the world. Decades of fragrance knowledge and far-flung inspiration come together to create a body of work that feels studied, addictive, and modern. We are the storytellers, Gerstner says. They make the magic. The renowned perfumers behind AEDES DE VENUSTAS extraordinary scents include Bertrand Duchaufour, Alberto Morillas, Fabrice Pellegrin, Ralf Schweiger, Nathalie Feisthauer, Frank Voelkl and Luca Maffei.
