GINO PERCONTINO
Gino Percontino is a New York based perfumer who’s been playing baseball since his hands were big enough to hold a ball.
​
He grew up in a baseball-loving family, played all his life,
and traveled the world as a junior champion baseball player.
​
Gino was studying Chemistry, with plans to become a doctor,
when he took a job as a lab technician in a fragrance lab.
​
He bonded with a senior perfumer who nurtured
Gino’s burgeoning interest in aroma chemicals,
bringing out his creative talents.
His inspiration & Universe
Gino is a die-hard New York Yankees fan,
even spends his vacations visiting landmark baseball stadiums.
He describes his fragrance style as minimalist,
with a passion for dramatic contrasts.
He sneaks a little of his signature favourite ingredients
into almost everything he creates.
He is especially fond of Sichuan Pepper Pure Jungle Essence™.
Gino is inspired by the rich culture of Italy:
Tuscany, the Amalfi coast, and Avellino, near Naples,
where his family is from.
