BORNTOSTANDOUT

  • The story of an olfactory revolution

    Born in 2020 and officially launched in 2022, the project took root in Jun Lim’s life after investment banking. He decided to take a chance. Today, the brand has nearly 30 fragrances distributed in 68 countries. Its creations, far from conventional perfumes, tell a story – his, ours. The fragrances bear unabashed names: Dirty Rice, Nanatopia, Dirty Heaven, Angels’ Powder, Indecent Cherry… Each is a nod to refined strangeness.

    The red & white aesthetic: Korean tradition and transgression

    White, the Confucian color of purity, becomes a blank canvas. Red, a symbol of rebellion, violates it. Together they embody the BORNTOSTANDOUT aesthetic duality.

    The bottles boldly and minimally reinterpret Joseon-era porcelain: elegance and provocation.
