🌹The Essence of Naturals — September 17 | Online 🌿

Natural Perfumery is growing around the world — but what is driving this evolution, and why are more perfumers and consumers turning toward naturals?

The International Perfume Foundation is delighted to collaborate with Beauty Cluster for The Essence of Naturals, an online event dedicated to Natural Perfumery, its heritage, its evolution and its future.

IPF Certified Natural Perfumers from around the world are joining for two special sessions:

🌍 Market Insights: Development of Natural Perfumery in the World
Perspectives from Europe, Australia, Taiwan and the USA, with Creezy Courtoy, Ana-Elena Sastrias, Kristin Chen and Rodney Hughes.

🌿 Roundtable: Why Natural Perfumery
With Janica-Valesca Hieronimi, Rachel Binder and Kristin Chen, exploring what makes Natural Perfumery relevant today — creatively, culturally and for the future of perfume.

The program also welcomes Meshari Alazemi, Certified Natural Perfumer and IPF-Certified Teacher, sharing his perspective on the evolution of Natural Perfumery in the Middle East.

September 17 | Online

Join us for a truly international conversation about the future of perfume — from nature, with nature.

🌸What if we could see a scent?

Perhaps it would look something like this.

A fragrance has no colour, no shape, no visible form — and yet, when we smell it, an entire universe can appear in our mind.

Colours. Memories. Landscapes. Emotions. Dreams.

This is the extraordinary power of olfaction: an invisible molecule can suddenly become an image, a feeling, a place.

Perfume is invisible beauty made visible by our imagination.

At the International Perfume Foundation, this is how we like to think about Natural Perfumery: as a connection between Nature, our senses and our inner world.

🍀What colour is your favourite scent?

The IPF Academy is more than a place to learn Natural Perfumery. 🌿

We also help brands create and develop successful Natural Perfumes.

From fragrance creation with our Certified Natural Perfumers to bottle and packaging design with the legendary Pierre Dinand, we bring together exceptional expertise to accompany a perfume project from its first idea to its final identity.

And our support doesn’t stop with creation.

✨ Perfumes developed through the program will carry the IPF Label and have the opportunity to be showcased within the IPF Pavilion at selected international perfume shows and events.

A beautiful fragrance.
A distinctive bottle.
The IPF Label.
International visibility.

From concept to creation. From creation to recognition.

🌿 Pomare’s Stolen Perfume
🌿 Scents of the Texas Hill Country

Alongside the Natural Perfumery Summit and the New Luxury Awards, these moments are helping us build a stronger international community around authentic, natural perfume.
