Inspirations

Back to Dark is not a perfume. It's a journey.

A true story told in silence and disbelief. The story of a return to France after fifteen years in Switzerland, with the desire to come home, to trust, to build. The story of a twenty-one-year friendship, a shared dream, a sincere light that seemed stronger than anything.

Then the light flickers.
Joy becomes noise.
Trust turns into tension.
What was meant to be a creative refuge is slowly drowning in chaos, mistakes, and egos. Until the moment comes when you have to close down, let go, and watch what was built with heart crumble.

Back to Dark was born from that precise moment.
Not anger, but doubt.
Not hatred, but loneliness.
From this cold pain that forces one to look at oneself and understand that some betrayals are not personal failures, but human weaknesses disguised as ambition.

Rather than war, choose virtue.
Rather than revenge, creation.

Everything that went unsaid, everything that was silently absorbed, has found its place here. In a dense, introspective, dark, and vibrant fragrance. A scent that speaks of loss, lucidity, and rebirth. Of that darkness that doesn't destroy, but nourishes.

Back to Dark is about transforming disenchantment into strength.
Because sometimes, you create more when you have less.
And because some lights only return after passing through the shadows.

The Unleashed Apothecary is back.

The perfumer: Jimmy Bodin

"I am the perfect antithesis of the traditional perfumer, having forged my art not in academic schools, but through incessant practice and hard work. This self-taught approach gives my creations an unparalleled singularity, marked by a freedom of composition rarely achieved by my peers.

Each fragrance I create transcends convention, offering a bold and uncompromising olfactory experience. My works are truly unique, demonstrating intuitive mastery and boundless creativity. By pushing the boundaries of the art of perfumery, I redefine standards and inspire a new generation of creators."

Unleashed Apothecary

Unleashed Apothecary is a French niche perfume house founded by Jimmy Bodin, who also founded Jousset Parfums. The brand was born from a need for creative freedom: to create perfumes without commercial constraints, guided above all by instinct, emotion, and personal experience.

Conceived as a space for self-expression, Unleashed Apothecary offers intense, often dark, introspective, sometimes unsettling, but always sincere olfactory creations. Each fragrance is designed as a fragment of life, a captured emotion, a moment transformed into olfactory substance.

The brand distinguishes itself through an artisanal approach, both in formulation and presentation. Raw materials are carefully selected, compositions prioritize depth and personality over simplicity, and the bottles reflect this commitment to remaining true to a raw and unadorned vision.

With Unleashed Apothecary, Jimmy Bodin explores a more personal, more direct approach to perfumery, where creation becomes a way to transform hardships, doubts, and silences into meaningful fragrances. A brand for those seeking more than just a scent: an experience, a story, a presence.
