Thai ultra-niche line for dense, animalic, narrative extraits crafted by Prin Lomros.
About Prin
Prin is a Thai niche perfume brand created by perfumer Prin Lomros as a separate project from his earlier houses Pryn Parfum, Strangers Parfumerie and Parfum Prissana. Fragrantica and multiple retailers describe Prin as a Tai-based brand founded in 2019, with Lomros as the exclusive in-house perfumer. The brand operates out of Bangkok and presents itself as an artisan perfume base focused on small-batch compositions in high concentrations such as parfum and extrait.
Prin was conceived as the platform for Lomros’s most personal and technically demanding work, allowing him to push into richer and more challenging territory than his other lines. Distributors and brand notes consistently emphasize animalic accords, dense resins, smoke, leather, and unusual florals, often anchored by musk-like structures and traditional materials from Asian perfumery. Early releases such as Mriga (2020) showcase this approach by building around a synthetic deer musk accord and complex naturalistic wood and resin facets instead of using animal-derived ingredients.
Prin’s catalog is predominantly unisex and often described as ultra-niche or artisanal, with compositions inspired by Asian culture, temple atmospheres, tropical landscapes, film, and narrative imagery drawn from Lomros’s background in cinema. The fragrances tend to favor high-impact, long-lasting extraits that explore difficult themes like heavy incense, animalics, and dense woods, appealing to experienced enthusiasts more than casual buyers. International distribution through specialist retailers such as Luckyscent and niche boutiques has helped Prin build a following among fans of experimental and story-driven perfumery.
Over time, Prin has grown from a spin-off concept into Lomros’s consolidated flagship, with earlier brands effectively folded into or overshadowed by the PRIN identity. Award recognition for Lomros’s artisan work in 2017 and 2018 and collaborations with other niche houses have further reinforced the perception of Prin as a serious, craft-oriented operation based in Thailand rather than a mass-produced label.

Brand Evolution
Prin began in 2019 as a separate line for Prin Lomros to pursue his most complex and personal ideas, distinguished from Pryn Parfum, Strangers Parfumerie, and Parfum Prissana. Over time, his earlier projects have effectively been unified under the PRIN identity, creating a single umbrella for his artisan work. The brand’s early focus on strong animalics and incense has broadened to include citrus and tropical facets, but the core remains dense, narrative extraits rooted in Asian and cinematic inspirations. As its catalog expands, Prin continues to target dedicated enthusiasts rather than toning down its style for mass appeal.
Quick Verdict
Prin is one of the most distinctive ultra-niche houses from Thailand, ideal for lovers of animalics, incense, and story-heavy compositions. If you want easy office-safe freshness, look elsewhere; if you want dense, cinematic extraits at fair prices, this line is a standout.
