Thank you Alex!

On the chance it might be useful to someone else, this ...

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<!-- /etc/fonts/fonts.conf file to configure system font access -->
<fontconfig>
<dir>~/path-to-my-profile/share/fonts</dir>
</fontconfig>

... in "~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf" worked for me ;-)
