Regeneration goes beyond sustainability: it aims not only to reduce impact, but also to repair, restore, and revitalize. It invites the perfume and cosmetics industry to adopt practices that restore more than they extract, by regenerating soils, resources, biodiversity, and skin.

Are you a researcher? A professional in the field? A start-up? A developer of new technologies?

Do you work in the field of regenerative agriculture, biotechnology, circular economy, materials reuse, or skin repair research?

👉 𝑪𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒅𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒛 𝒅è𝒔 𝒎𝒂𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒏𝒂𝒏𝒕 to become a speaker in the official conference program of the world innovation show for the perfume and cosmetics industry.

Thursday, March 19

During the Olfaction & Perspectives Congress, the lunch break will take on a sensory dimension with a mixology activity, at the crossroads of perfume, taste and creativity.

Mixology is the art of designing cocktails like composing a perfume: careful selection of raw materials, balance of notes, construction of a sensory signature.

A discipline where smell plays a central role, just as in perfumery.

This workshop will be led by Jean Charles Sommerard 🌞 , Perfumer-Creator & Mixologist, Founder of MAIE PIOU .
