The Unleashed Apothecary
Handcrafted fragrances in artisan-finished glass.
The Unleashed Apothecary is an ultra-niche French artisan perfumery founded in 2022 by perfumer Jimmy Bodin, who returned to his native Brittany after fifteen years in Switzerland to establish a multi-service workshop with his wife Melis and childhood friend Henri. Bodin's approach brings together modern sensory design principles with ancestral extraction methods — maceration, distillation, and careful leaching of raw materials in superfine alcohol — to produce compositions of uncommon depth and transparency. The brand's distinctively designed bottles, individually finished by hand, are as much object as vessel, reflecting a philosophy in which the entire experience of the fragrance, from packaging to projection, constitutes the work. Fragrances are available exclusively through a small network of vetted resellers, with PERIYARD serving as the French exclusive, preserving a deliberate scarcity that keeps the brand within a rarefied circle of serious collectors.
DNA over time
Each column is an era. Each colored band shows that family’s share of accord weight across every perfume the house released in that window. Bigger band = the house leaned harder on that family.
