About Harry Slatkin

Called the “king” of home fragrance by the New York Times, Harry Slatkin is the founder and creative force behind Slatkin & Co., the premiere home fragrance brand. A former Bear Stearns Director, he created Slaktin & Co. in 1992 when his passion for fragrance developed into a lucrative business. Launched at Saks Fifth Avenue, the brand was quickly picked up by luxury retailers Neiman Marcus, Bergdorf Goodman, Barneys and international stores like Harrods in London, Villa Moda in Dubai and Joyce in Hong Kong. Socialites, celebrities and interior designers quickly became fans and requested personal scents. In 2005 the legendary retailer Les Wexner recognized Slatkin’s talent and purchased Slatkin & co. for Limited Brands (NYSE:LTD) and named Slatkin President of Home Design. Harry Slatkin and his wife Laura serve on the boards of various non-profit organizations including Autism Speaks, Henry Street Settlement House, The New England Center for Children and NYCA (New York Center for Autism), which Mr. & Mrs. Slatkin founded.
