Rifat Ozbek (born 1953) is a Turkish-born fashion and interior designer, known for his exotic, ethnically-inspired outfits.He was named British Designer of the Year in 1988 and 1992.

After graduating in 1977, Ozbek went to Italy where he worked in Milan between 1978 and 1980, then in London with Monsoon .] In 1984 he established his own company, Ozbek, and began to show his yearly collections in Milan and New York City, and more recently, in Paris. In 1987 the production of his studio line, Future Ozbek, was licensed to Aeffe SpA, in Italy, and his notoriety continued to grow. By 1995, he had launched his own perfume called "Ozbek", and later a second, "Ozbek 1001". The fall 1999/spring 2000 collections of many designers reflected the very aesthetic that Ozbek valued for over a decade—the artful mixing of unlikely patterns, shapes, and ornamentation, along with bits and pieces borrowed from a global grab bag. In 2010, Ozbek launched a new business called "Yastik", which means "pillow" in Turkish, and opened his first London store.

Özbek was an interior designer for Robin Birley's new nightclub, 5 Hertford Street, which opened in 2012

A companion piece to his revered Perfume Legends, it charts the development of the American fragrance industry from the 19th century to the present day, via household names…

It's the scent of autumn, oxidation: you can smell it on your skin, that sunburn perfume.

One of my love language is I always keep things/gifts which other people give me. Like, if you ever give me something then I'm just going to keep that my whole life.

Roman bird-shaped glass vessels were used as perfume bottles. The liquid was sealed inside the vessels and the tip of the tail had to be broken to remove the perfume. The one pictured (c. 1st century AD) is still intact and filled with the scented content.
