The only perfumer in the world to cultivate his own ingredients

Posted by Robin on 6 June 2024 Leave a Comment

According to Matiere Premiere, Guichard is the only perfumer in the world to cultivate his own ingredients, namely the Rose centifolia in its Radical Rose scent, and tuberose, the central raw material in its French Flower fragrance.
