... let's start with the best-known profession, that of perfumer, also called perfume creator, creative perfumer or "nose," whose main mission is to create a new perfume. The perfumer imagines a smell, develops it in his head and sets up his formulation. Highly developed olfactory senses and a passion for smells and aromas are qualities needed to succeed in finding a place in [the perfume industry in France.] 4, record 1, English, - perfumer
