The founders

Two perspectives. Creative tension.

Robin Dünner and Nico Mannino have been friends since childhood. In 2020, their shared love of perfume became pernoire. Both are sensitive by nature, with different strengths: Robin often brings the creative spark and emotional perspective, while Nico leans towards analysis and numbers. Like yin and yang, they complement each other. Together, they bring out the best in their ideas.

Robin Dünner

Co-Founder · CMO

Robin leads pernoire’s creative direction and marketing. Relationships matter most to him: understanding people, staying in conversation and making a difference to them through what he creates. His experience in photography and film shapes the house’s images and stories. Numbers and strategic decisions are also part of his work.

Health is a priority for Robin. He runs ultramarathons and takes an interest in Stoic philosophy. Endurance, looking after himself and reflecting on what really matters are part of his life beyond work.

Nico Mannino

Co-Founder · CEO

Nico leads pernoire as co-founder and CEO. After studying business administration, he worked in finance and financial control. He brings that experience to the house’s strategy, sales and business decisions. His long-standing love of perfume also shapes his work on the fragrances. Together with Robin and perfumer Andreas Wilhelm, he develops each composition. Personal memories become fragrance ideas, too: Vitias draws on the warmth and sea air of his southern Italian roots.

Away from work, Nico enjoys playing chess and learning new languages.

What drives us.

Robin and Nico create fragrances that express who they are and what they enjoy. They follow their own curiosity, regardless of current trends. Each composition reflects their interests and the different sides of their personalities. They hope you find something of yourself in it, too.

From idea to fragrance.

It begins with a feeling, a memory or something that sparks their curiosity. Together with perfumer Andreas Wilhelm, Robin and Nico translate that idea into a fragrance. They exchange impressions, question decisions and refine the composition. Each brings something different. Through this shared process, they create a perfume they both believe in.
