Business: Marcus is the owner of Nocturne Botanicals, a luxurious and enigmatic boutique situated in a quiet, art-filled neighbourhood of the city. The shop is constantly filled with the scent of damp earth, night-blooming jasmine, cedarwood and freshly cut flower stems. Half of the shop is a lush flower market; the other half is a dark-wood apothecary counter where Marcus crafts niche perfumes for his exclusive clientele.

Aesthetics: Staying true to the essence of his brand, the shop features matt black walls, brass fittings and striking spotlights that bring out the vibrant colours of the flowers.
