He designed for the biggest luxurious brands such as Givenchy, Versace, Van Cleef & Arpels, Paco Rabanne, Lagerfeld, Burberrys, Cartier, Chopard, Ferré…

His daring handwriting was discovered when he created the first Comme des Garçons Fragrance. After, he was quickly recognized in the “Haute Parfumerie” and participated to artistic projects such as MoslBuddjewChirstHinDao, a “Unifaith” fragrance, “Whole lot of non-scents” book by Chandler Burr.

We here at Balduin used to be absolutely obsessed with Comme des Garçons WHITE for about 10 years. So we are super happy that we now have his personal line on our shelfs. With this line of perfumes, Mark Buxton created modern classics that needs to be discovered by scent aficionados.

We can´t wait what Mark Buxton and David Chieze have planned for the future!
