Leslie Gauthier is a perfumer who discovered the profession in 2007 and trained at ISIPCA before joining Symrise's in-house perfumery school in 2014.
Since joining Symrise in 2011, she has worked in six fragrance creation centers around the world — Singapore, France, Spain, Germany, Mexico, and, since 2019, Brazil — an itinerant career that she says gives her compositions their assertive character, texture, and volume.
Textured, assertive compositions shaped by direct experience across six different global fragrance markets.
