Current Experience

Chief formulator

Panah Labs

Apr 2020 – Apr 2024 · 4 yrs · London Area, United Kingdom · On-site

With innovation at our core, we created the world’s first Azelaic Acid Cream using Encapsulated Technology from Mibelle, Switzerland -formulated in an alcohol-free, silicone-free formula. Considered one of the most challenging formulations to date, it was often regarded as a formulator’s nightmare.
Panah Labs 10% Azelaic Acid Gel Cream organically climbed to the first page on Amazon.com, competing with prestigious brands like Paula’s Choice - achieving this purely through word of mouth and product quality, without any marketing spend.
A few other breakthroughs include Panah Salicylic Acid, the world’s first encapsulated salicylic acid with ceramides sourced from Evonik, Germany. We have also collaborated with some of the most talented formulators across Germany, the US, Thailand, Korea, and Japan to bring cutting-edge innovations in Skincare industry.

Creative Director

Jul 2017 – Present · 8 yrs 10 mos · London Area, United Kingdom · On-site

As a Creative Director, I collaborated with world-class master perfumers to craft niche gourmand fragrances. Among them, Pink Champagne Truffle, created with master perfumer Kedra Hart, achieved cult status and set a new benchmark for chocolate-based perfumes.
At its peak, it became the most organically reviewed chocolate fragrance within the niche fragrance community globally - so much so that the Champagne Committee of France intervened, politely requesting us to remove the word 'Champagne' since the fragrance contained none. The fragrance was subsequently rebranded as Pink Marc de Champagne Truffle.
Few other creations
Strawberry Delight with Kedra Hart ( Strawberry Gourmand)
Legend of Mysore with Kedra Hart ( Sandalwood & Chocolate Gourmand)
Gourmantic Orange with Luzy ( Orange & Chocolate Gourmand)
Tuberorse Vanille with Christian Carbonnel ( Tuberose & Vanilla Gourmand)
I also innovated the world’s first niche perfume Icy Citrus with encapsulated technology, designed to release cooling agents upon contact with perspiration. ( Instant cooling sensation when comes in contact with sweat or water)
