I'd suggest you go back to the person who asked you to use this font,
and find out where they got the idea! I've not been able to locate it in
any font library, but I don't have access to all the latest
"fashionable" fonts -- you could try browsing through the links on http://www.typeindex.com which indexes the websites of a lot of
non-mainstream font developers.
