Gérard Haury

Gérard Haury is a discreet perfumer, credited with the composition of Chrome by Azzaro in 1996, and father of perfumer Raphaël Haury.

Few perfumers leave as clear a mark with a single signature. Professional databases credit Gérard Haury with only one composition: Chrome, launched by Azzaro in 1996, which became one of the house's best-selling masculines.

The rare sources that document him link him to Haarmann & Reimer, the German raw materials house since absorbed by Symrise. None details his training or the rest of his career, which remains out of reach.

His descent is better documented. Perfumer Raphaël Haury, born and raised in Grasse, describes himself as the son of a perfumer; trained at the Charabot perfumery school, he composed Chaumet Homme in 2000 and several fragrances for Azzaro.
