To learn more about odours, I followed a training: a true electroshock! I continued with other modules on accords, olfactory families, formulation...

Founder of Sylvaine Delacourte Perfumes.
...I learned both the fun in the creation and the rigorous approach in the composition...

Aliénor Massenet,
