ARQUISTE® Founder Carlos Huber is in the Perfumer Room today! Carlos’ love of old cities led him to his first career as a Preservation Architect, but it was his fascination with how they smelled that led him to his second: as a fragrance developer and founder of an award-winning fragrance brand focused on preserving history and architecture through scent. You can also thank Carlos (as well as legendary perfumer Rodrigo Flores-Roux, who, btw, personally trained him(!)) for the vacation in a bottle smell that is Vacation by Vacation Inc!

Carlos shares so many fun personal stories including how he broke into the industry and *spoiler alert*: if you’re thinking about flaking out on upcoming lunch plans, don’t, because for him, that’s where it all began…
