- Amyllia Gallup Perfumer:
Amyllia Gallup is a remarkable figure in the world of perfumery, renowned as the creative force behind Gallup Perfume, an independent artisanal perfume house celebrated for its small - quantity micro - batches.
With a diverse and imaginative approach, Amyllia Gallup crafts an array of unique and abstract scents. Her creative process is a blend of art and science, where she draws inspiration from a wide range of sources, be it nature, emotions, or experiences. Each fragrance she creates is a story told through a harmonious combination of notes.
For instance, in "Eternal Beauty," which is suitable for both women and men, she skillfully combines top notes of palisander rosewood, clementine, and black pepper. These initial scents lead to a heart composed of neroli, jasmine, sandalwood, and cinnamon, and finally settle into a base of ambergris, patchouli, oakmoss, pink pepper, and vanilla. This complex layering results in a fragrance that can be described as a grounding, earthy, and modern Victorian - inspired olfactory experience.
Another of her creations, "RED," also unisex, features top notes of raspberry, plum, and red berries, which give way to a middle layer of gardenia, rose, and jasmine, and concludes with base notes of cedar, coriander, white chocolate, and musk. This scent is often lauded for its classy, chic, and elegant semi - gourmand profile.
In the "Angora Oud" fragrance, Amyllia Gallup shows her prowess in creating a unisex scent that combines various sensory elements. It starts with lighter citrus notes of orange and lime within the framework of osmanthus. The heart then melds the textures of angora, violet, and clove, while the base is sculpted from oud, pine, wood, and musk. This fragrance was even a finalist for the Art and Olfaction Award in 2022, a testament to her exceptional talent and the quality of her work.
Gallup Perfume's commitment to quality is unwavering. Amyllia Gallup uses only the highest - quality ingredients in her products. Whether it's the finest aroma chemicals, nature - identical isolates, or top - tier natural absolutes, CO2 extracts, resins, essential oils, and tinctures sourced from renowned suppliers like Givaudan, IFF, Firmenich, Symrise, Robertet, and others, every element is carefully selected.
The production process at Gallup Perfume is a labor of love. From the initial idea to the final product, everything is done by hand. The formulation process is painstakingly meticulous. It can take up to a year or even longer for a fragrance to go from concept to being ready for consumers. Each ingredient is carefully compared to others, and the blend then undergoes an age - maturation process, followed by revision and tweaking. Finally, strict quality control measures are implemented to ensure that only the best fine and niche fragrances reach the market. This dedication to the traditions of quality and care is what makes Amyllia Gallup's perfumes stand out in the highly competitive world of perfumery.
