Sandrine Malin is a remarkable figure in the world of perfumery. Her work is characterized by a unique blend of artistry and innovation.
Malin has collaborated on various high - profile projects, demonstrating her versatility and expertise. One of her notable works was for VISIONAIRE's 32nd issue "SCENT" in 2003, where she was involved in creating a fragrance inspired by Karl Lagerfeld's concept. Lagerfeld, during a no - carb diet, proposed the idea of "hunger", and Malin captured the aroma of freshly baked bread from Paris's legendary Poilane Bakery for the related perfume, which was in line with Lagerfeld's vision. This project showcased her ability to translate abstract concepts into olfactory experiences.
She has also participated in events like the fashion show in Paris, where she, along with other perfumers, worked with Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs (ENSAD) students. Each perfumer paired with a corresponding designer, and Malin created scents that complemented the fashion collections, mirroring the molecular themes of the event such as Bo, Th, ZE, etc. This experience highlights her skills in collaborating with different creative fields and in creating scents that can enhance and harmonize with other forms of art.
Sandrine Malin's creations often stand out for their complexity and depth. She combines different notes in a way that is both harmonious and unexpected, making her perfumes a sensory journey for those who experience them. Her work not only shows her technical proficiency in handling various fragrance materials but also her creative vision in crafting scents that can evoke emotions and tell stories.
