Founded by Paul Byron Downs, Graybill & Downs is a culmination of Paul's experiences through work, travel and education. Brought up in Atlanta, Paul's path took an unexpected turn as he moved to Europe shortly after graduating college to being modeling; (featured in notable publications, advertisements and runway shows like Arena, Banana Republic, W Magazine and International Vogue to name just a few). While living in London, Paris and Milan, Paul was immersed in the culture which included the classic European fashion and fragrance houses. After several years in Europe, Paul moved back to the United States to New York City where he spent the next fifteen years working in management and development for hospitality trendsetters like Ian Schrager, Andre Balazs, Taylor Florence and Jean George Vongerichten.
When launching Graybill & Downs in his hometown of Atlanta. Paul's vision was to create an American fragrance company which harked to the fine parfumeries of Europe. His goal also was to draw inspiration from his English and Southern heritage, using this as a springboard to introduce truly unique fragrances blends such as Sweet Magnolia & Fig, Boxwood Grove and Tobacco & Orange Blossom; just a few of our 21 distinctive fragrances.
