Season 2- Episode 11: The Prolific and Unconventional nose: Antoine Lie

In this episode we’re chatting with French Perfumer - Antoine Lie

Antoine is an accomplished Perfumer that loves to create without constraints or restrictions, he values the true creative and organic process and he believes that the scent should take you to places and emotions you’ve never experienced before…

Antoine Lie was raised in Strasbourg, France, where he studied chemistry before moving to Grasse to study fragrance at Givaudan under Jean Carles. After an apprenticeship to famous teaching master Jean Guichard, Antoine spent time in both France and the United States, where he was involved in developing worldwide hit fragrances such as Armani Code and Versace Crystal Noir, but a yearning for greater creative freedom led him away from the big companies and towards the niche houses where he would be allowed to pursue his own vision of straightforward, yet unconventional fragrances.

He has worked with many renowned brands - Burberry, Comme des Garcons, Costume National, Davidoff, Zegna, Etat Libre d’Orange.… Just to name a few.

‘’The number of yearly launches have increased in such a way that brands went from creating unique artisanal fragrances to working like machines pumping new releases almost daily…’’ -Antoine Lie
