Perfumer
Louise Turner
Louise Turner is a renowned perfumer who has created some of the most successful fragrances for various brands in the industry. Born and raised in the south of England, Turner discovered her love for scent through the wildflowers in her hometown of Kent, particularly honeysuckle and lilac. She went on to pursue a degree in dentistry but found herself drawn to perfumery during a temporary job at Quest (now Givaudan) during a break from her studies.
Turner has been a perfumer at Givaudan since 2000 and has worked with various brands such as Roberto Cavalli, Thierry Mugler, and Maison Martin Margiela. She has a style that is joyful, luminous, and uplifting, often inspired by her favorite flowers such as orange blossom, jasmine, wisteria, or tuberose. Turner is known for her ability to evoke not only the scent of flowers but also the texture of petals and the sense of pleasure they bring
