OLFACTORY PYRAMID
BEHIND THE SCENT
Born of Grasse in the family of perfumers, at the beginning Vincent Ricord wanted to study arts and music. But he found his destny in the other art- fragrance composing. He created the Original Collection, Black Collection for HFC and Megan Hess Fragrances.
Vincent enjoys the contrast of sharing ideas on projects and briefs with colleagues and customers, taking inspiration from colours, artists, travel, food, music – the process is full of rich information. He describes the creative process as: “Being in the intimacy of a blank piece of paper and a pen, turning those emotions into a fragrance… It’s a magical moment.”
