Eléonore de Staël, is an independent perfumer based in Paris who specializes in natural perfumes. Her creative choices are very often combined with a therapeutic dimension to reconnect with the origins of perfumery. I was inspired by Eléonore’s story as she didn’t take the traditional path but still found a way to follow her dream. I met Eléonore during a creative project for Magique, the olfactive and sensory studio where I work. The project was called Respire, and I love the scents she had created that evoked the memory of a cinema and a comedy club. You can discover this project on magique’s instagram : @magique.studio

In this episode we go through Eléonore’s journey, her passion and resilience to become a perfumer, her encounters, mentors and the creative drive she feeds into her projects.
