- Cyrille Carles Perfumer:
Cyrille Carles is a prominent figure in the world of perfumery. He is the grandson of the iconic perfumer Jean Carles. Jean Carles, a French perfumer born on January 12, 1892, in Grasse (the world's capital of perfume), was a visionary in the industry. He joined the renowned Roure Bertrand fils et Justin duppont in Grasse, where he became the head perfumer and created some of the 20th century's most iconic fragrances like Miss Dior, Ma Griffe, and Shocking. Jean Carles also founded the Roure perfumery school in 1946 and developed the Jean Carles method for training novice perfumers, which is still widely used today. Cyrille Carles, carrying forward the family legacy, has established himself as a skilled perfumer in his own right.
He is the chief perfumer at SGP EDO Company in France and holds a first - class perfumer certificate issued by the French Association of Flavor and Fragrance. As the third - generation of this distinguished perfumery family, Cyrille has a deep - rooted connection to the art of perfumery. His works often showcase a unique blend of traditional techniques passed down through generations and a modern understanding of scent compositions.
One of his notable creations is Strada Parfumerie Avenue Montaigne. This fragrance is bold and distinctive. It opens with the scent of extremely expensive leather goods, delicately interwoven with floral notes and assertively musky, woody elements. In many aspects, it evokes the luxurious interior of a brand - new high - end automobile, such as a Mercedes - Benz or Bentley. The leathery aroma is suggested by burnished bronze / copper - hued saffron, time - honored birch tar, and further enhanced by the raspy, woody labdanum - like amberwood F® (Symrise). It also features a fleeting introduction of bergamot, well - blended non - indolic jasmines with a hint of rose, and fir resin that contributes a delicately jammy touch, tempered by the dry balsamic nature of cedar. Vanilla plays a supporting role, while musks amplify the leathery quality, resulting in a well - integrated, consistent, and elegant fragrance that feels genderless.
