\"Sonia-Constant-en\"<\/a>What would you expect from a little girl whose first word was \u201cflower\u201d? To become a world famous perfumer, of course! That\u2019s exactly what happened to Sonia Constant \u2013 a senior perfumer at Givaudan.<\/p>\n

When she was a little child, Sonia Constant didn\u2019t even know there was such a profession. What she knew, though, was that she was fascinated by the flowers in her grandparents\u2019 garden and she wanted to grow up and become an artist, a designer, an architect or a stylist. \u201cI wanted to become a creator and I loved aromas and scents,\u201d she remembers. What a better way to make her dream come true then become a perfumer?<\/p>\n

As for the inspiration that\u2019s behind her fragrance creations, Sonia admits: \u201cFor me sources of creativity may have very different origins. [\u2026] But often inspiration\u00a0 comes from my traveling [\u2026] I used to travel a lot, Rajastan, Vietnam, Sri Lanka, Namibia, Thailand \u2026 From each country, from each culture, from each cooking, from each new flower I discovered during my travels I brought home new starting points for new perfume creations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Perfumery, for Sonia Constant, is a pure form of art. Except for creativity and inspiration, however, the creation of a new fragrance takes a lot of hard work as well. Here\u2019s how she explains it: \u201cYou have to be creative but in a smart way; creativity is not enough today to become a perfumer. I think the most difficult thing in perfumery is to turn a creative accord into a finished fragrance that will be good in customer tests either in France, USA, Asia and the Middle East as well.\u201d<\/p>\n

Her passion for perfumes is what has immensely helped her in her quest to perfection when it comes to perfume creation. \u201cWhen I started perfumery\u201d, she recalls, \u201cI was so curious, everything was worth learning. I was like a hungry dog that wants to learn-learn-learn as much and as fast as possible [\u2026]\u201d<\/p>\n

She even compares the creative powers behind a new perfume formula to sex: \u201cI think a human being loves things that are logical, but creation is exactly the other way around! It’s like an orgasm: it will come only if you let you go. If you think too much you are going to do the same thing that others did before. You have to be a little bit crazy!\u201d<\/p>\n
