Christophe
Laudamiel: Parfum
- Lecture in English
Saturday,
May 23, 4:00 pm at the Lawrence
Family Jewish Community Center
 World
renowned French perfume creator
Christophe Laudamiel invites us
to travel to the heart of our senses,
to biological levels within the
universe of emotions awakened by
smells. He will show us how olfactory
senses are a powerful means of communicating
and educating, in the business world,
as well as in our personal lives.
Laudamiel will talk about the use
of technologies associated with
the spread of a scent in order to
create a specifically intended ambiance
or concept.
About the speaker: Christophe
Laudamiel currently works with the
organization International Flavors
and Fragrances in New York. He boasts
an impressive number of creations
for well-known clients, including
Clinique, Harvey Nichols, Orlan,
Slatkin & Co., Thierry Mugler
for Patrick Süskind, and Ralph
Lauren.
After significant scientific training,
including graduating at the top
of his class from the École
Européenne des Hautes Études
des Industries Chimiques, he went
on to teach chemistry at MIT and
received a Perfumer-Creator certification
from Proctor & Gamble.
His work has focused on the relationship
between the world of perfumery and
that of art and design. His creations
are infused with a sense of ambiance,
and his inspiration comes from various
sources: a living room, a music
video, a new scientific discovery,
famous people or characters, or
a geographic place could inspire
the perfume that everyone will be
wearing next year. |
