Anne Flipo is a senior perfumer at IFF and one of the most accomplished noses of her generation, responsible for some of the most commercially successful and critically admired fragrances of the 21st century.
“Orange blossom takes a huge part in my signature too. It is the ingredient I would never be fed up with. I could create a thousand perfumes around it, without it ever being redundant.”
Anne Flipo · Everfumed (from Fernweh Editions), July 2020
She is the creative force behind Viktor & Rolf's Flowerbomb — a fragrance that redefined the floral category — and Lancôme's La Vie Est Belle, one of the best-selling perfumes in the world. Trained at ISIPCA, Flipo brings a Parisian sophistication to every composition, balancing wearability with genuine artistry.
