Joëlle Lerioux Patris is a French perfumer who graduated from ISIPCA in 1998 and joined Mane, going on to design fragrances across European and Asian markets for more than twenty years, including Acqua di Parma's Colonia Mirra, Jo Malone's Oud and Bergamot, and Givenchy L'Atelier's Rose Ardente.
A former dancer who was once poised to join New York's Alvin Ailey Dance Theater, she chose olfactory creation instead, returning to France in 2012 for Expressions Parfumées and Fragrance Resources before establishing her own independent laboratory and olfactory garden in Grasse in 2019, under the brand name Le Parfumeur Français.
Generous, daring compositions shot through with a subtle nod to vintage fine perfumery, developed in an immersive studio setting.

Noble materials and classical structure. Creed fragrances are built around the finest natural ingredients — ambergris, royal water, hand-selected musks — composed in the traditional infusion method that has defined the house for centuries.
