An emergent French niche fragrance brand, Les Eaux Primordiales was founded by artist & engineer Arnaud Poulain. The fragrances are made in the French northern countryside region of Haut-de-France, where Poulain was raised in a family of artisans & farmers. After studying mechanical engineering & then perfumery, he launched the Les Eaux Primordials fragrance collection in collaboration with the perfumer Amélie Bourgeois, his former teacher.
