We had a chance to catch up with Carlos Huber at the Pitti Fragranze show in Florence this September and not only discover The Architects Club, Carlos’s latest scent, but a little bit more about the man behind the brand. Arquiste is a fragrance collection that transports the wearer to evocative moments in history and with The Architects Club we are taken right to cocktail hour in Mayfair in the 1930’s as a young group of architects enjoy a frosty cocktail before heading out into the London evening. We think one of those present just may be Carlos himself!
