Aurelien Guichard grew up right in the heart of perfumery: in Grasse. His father (Jean Guichard) was a famous perfumer and his mother a sculptor. His family grew roses. He did not have your typical upbringing - his was uniquely scented. In this episode I speak with Aurélien about his work as a perfumer and a grower of materials, and how he has turned his hand to create a unique fragrance brand, where he places absolute focus and respect on the raw material.You can find out more about Matiere Premiere on the brand's website: https://matiere-premiere.com/enFollow the brand on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/matierepremiereparfums/Aurélien's emotional connection scents are Lou Lou by Cacharel, L'Eau d'Issey by Issey Miyake, and the scent of roses.---This episode of Making Scents Make Sense is sponsored by Kaorium.
