IO.KO 1954

IO.KO 1954 was created by Italian perfumer Enzo Galardi as a personal project following his work on other artistic and niche perfume brands. Its name combines Galardi’s pseudonym, IO.KO, with 1954, his birth year. Based in Scandicci near Florence, the brand’s public fragrance record begins in 2017, with further entries in 2018 and 2019. Its official history describes an initial collection of six fragrances, while Fragrantica records eight released between 2017 and 2019. Galardi is credited as the nose behind the collection.
