Scene: Amdo, 1920, 5:45 a.m., Lake Koko Nor Main role: Vetiverol Accompaniment: Galbanum resinoid Mise en Scène Echo and Narcissus: Exploring the boundaries between love and obsession. A man stares lovingly ahead. The delicate features of his freshly shaven face are reflected in the cashmere-blue water. He reaches out with his hand to touch the reflection of his face and waits to see what the waves will do when reality meets his fantasy.A modern vetiver from the mountains – interpretation of an ozone scent Vetiverol is a sesquiterpene alcohol found in vetiver oil. Vetiver oil is sweet and woody-earthy, reminiscent of roots and damp earth. Vetiverol, however, is much purer and has an airy, salty accent, rich woodiness and a tangy hint of grapefruit. The great advantage of using vetiverol is that the perfumer can decide for themselves which accents they want to emphasise. It acts as a beautiful base note – like surface tension. Galbanum resinoid is a remarkable material with a natural character and a dark green twist. Adding green to this otherwise blue palette enhances the feeling of height and airy skies. It creates a real sense of sky blue. The bottle and packaging The number on the packaging always corresponds to the decade in history. The bottle, in turn, has been kept classic and modern in the Bauhaus style.

Pantomime Perfume
Pantomime Perfume was founded in 2023 by creative director Jeroen Oude Sogtoen and in-house perfumer Fredrik Dalman. The extraordinary brand seeks ‘clarity in the opaque’ through special raw materials and their composition. Pantomime perfumes are created to enhance your memories, stories and emotions. We provide the stage, you play the role. No words, just perfume. Inspired by different places and times, Pantomime creates the stage to evoke emotions and feelings. The result is a new language that represents scents in sounds, textures, shapes or colours.
Jeroen Oude Sogtoen – Founder & Creative Director
Jeroen Oude Sogtoen, founder and creative mind behind Pantomime, lives in Amsterdam. His roots and creative talent stem from his many years of experience in fashion and design. With Pantomime, he wants to explore the true meaning of luxury while challenging its creative boundaries. In all his creations, his focus is always on originality and olfactory innovation.
Fredrik Dalman – Accord Parfums – In-house perfumer
Fredrik's style of perfumery is linked to his love of storytelling. Fragrances are his medium of choice for telling these stories, as they require no words to evoke emotions and images.
Jeroen and Fredrik have set themselves the goal of creating a new olfactory language for Pantomime Parfum. In their search for ‘clarity in the opaque’ through unusual raw materials and their deconstruction, they create fragrances that offer space for your memories, your stories, your feelings.
The modern age of old-school synthetics
Today's fragrance market is full of brands that focus on the beauty of synthetic raw materials. Ingredients such as Iso E Super (1973), Ambroxan (1949) and Javanol (1960) are no longer trade secrets, but powerful marketing tools. However, the popularity of these synthetic substances is also their timeliness – their beauty leads to excessive use. In a perfumer's laboratory, there is a wealth of fascinating molecules just waiting to take centre stage. And at Pantomime Parfum, this is exactly what is happening with Ambrettolide HC Supreme (2018), Bisabolene (1960), Methyl Ionone Alpha Extra (1893), Lactone of Cis Jasmone (1973) and Vetiverol (1950). Fragrances with clarity, texture and lightness – like abstract painting – present but not tangible, diffuse yet perceptible and, above all, long-lasting.
Main stage
Synthetic raw materials are the foundation of modern perfumery. They allow the perfumer to create colour and texture by directing light onto a specific part of the creation and adding shadow or depth to other parts. This allows them to literally paint their own scent dream in any colour, shape or texture they desire. Pantomime Perfume seeks clarity in depth. Our approach is that a synthetic raw material plays the leading role – that is the clarity. By adding a few well-chosen natural ingredients, we can add depth. What connects them is their highest possible quality. By playing with this concept, we can create any stage setting we want, and then leave the choice up to you.
The acts
The acts show scenes, places you can discover. We take the wearer to more than just a specific place. Each act adds another dimension with its finely tuned details, moods and the atmosphere it creates.
The scenes
The aim is to create an atmosphere that expresses these scent scenes – that is what Pantomime Parfum is all about. What do you see? What do you hear? What can you touch? Bring yourself in with your memories, feelings and references. We invite you to step onto the stage and embody your role.
