OUR INSPIRATION
SHRI AKHILESH KUMAR MISHRA - A Legendary visionary who created GRATIA
When you know what you are doing is right then you put your heart into it and the same happened when Late Shri. Akhilesh Mishra Ji outlined the vision for GRATIA. It was his dream to create a breakthrough name in the world of fragrance. Although his love for fragrances was not new having purest extracts from naturally scented products and establishing a premium brand was his reverie.
He the pioneer was a passionate creator of his time, Late Shri. Akhilesh Kumar Mishra was the one who researched hundreds of fragrances and made thousands of blends and creations out of them, GRATIA is a fruitful result of his creations. The aromas he invented, today are used in GRATIA products. His commendable work is much appreciated in the fragrance industry.
He, Who was always keen to develop new fragrances, had designed and established his very personal laboratory where he experimented with natural fragrances. The plethora of fragrances was analyzed and new notes were created by him. He keenly assessed various fragrant herbs, flowers, natural extracts, and fragrant woods, and how those could be collectively added to form a remarkable blend. His passion for scents was so much that the moment he use to smell any fragrance, he was fairly able to find out the DNA of compositions and ingredients quite precisely within minutes of concentration in inhaling, this was one among several unique qualities that he possessed and people admired him for the same.
He started his career with 4 units which were managed by his father Late Shri. S.P. Mishra and under his father’s guidance learned the nitty-gritty of business entrepreneurship. Under the watchful eyes and guidance of Late Shri. A.K. Mishra’s leadership, the units produced several attars with distillation in field distilleries at Kannauj, Hasayan - district Aligarh (U.P.) for ROSE. At Kaluapalli, district - Ganjam (Odisha) for KEWRA Moosanagar, and various other places for KHUS (Vetiver) and Kanpur for personal care products manufacturing Plant.
During the initial days of his career, he worked with renowned companies in India. People from similar trades were surprised by the level of knowledge he gained at a very young age about fragrances.
