Michał Gilbert Lach grew up in Poland dreaming of making perfume. He built a fashion label first, launched his first fragrance in 2012, unveiled the full Bohoboco collection in 2016, and closed the clothing line entirely in 2020 to focus solely on scent. The concept is contrast: every fragrance is built around opposing forces: sweet against savoury, warmth against cold, the familiar against the unexpected. Awards from the Fragrance Foundation UK, Vogue Beauty and Elle Style have followed. One of the most original voices to come out of European niche perfumery in the last decade.
Start with a contrast that intrigues you
Bohoboco gives collectors a clear way into its work: choose an unexpected pairing and explore what happens between the notes. Sweetness, temperature and familiar smells become material for contrast. The opposing ideas are part of how the perfumes are composed, so the full development matters as much as the opening. If you enjoy a recognisable ingredient used in an unfamiliar way, Bohoboco is a house worth spending time with.
