Angéline Leporini

Angéline Leporini grew up with a chemistry set in one hand and a bouquet of garden roses in the other. After earning a B.Sc. in Chemistry, she enrolled at ISIPCA, where a master’s thesis on rose extraction earned her a place as a trainee in Grasse. There she apprenticed at a house celebrated for its natural-ingredient expertise, absorbing the discipline of raw-material selection under a senior perfumer’s watchful eye. In 2015 she joined Eurofragance in Barcelona, quickly moving from junior collaborator to senior perfumer. Her first high-profile success arrived with the Liu Jo collaboration, a scent that married bright citrus with a whisper of cedar, earning industry praise and cementing her reputation for elegant balance. Since then she has guided projects ranging from Opéra Coloré to Perle D'Or, each bearing her hallmark of refined simplicity.

The signature

How Angéline composes

Angéline’s studio reads like a laboratory of botanicals. Rose absolute, freshly cut jasmine and wild orange blossom sit beside transparent musks and subtle ambergris analogues. She builds accords layer by layer, letting each note settle before adding the next, a method she calls “controlled breathing.” Sustainable sourcing guides her ingredient list; she favors growers who practice low-impact harvesting. Citrus bursts are always balanced with a grounding wood—cedar, sandalwood or guaiac—creating depth without heaviness. Her signatures are crisp openings, a heart that lingers, and a dry-down that whispers rather than shouts.

Philosophy

What drives Angéline

Angéline believes that a fragrance must first feel honest, then become a memory. She starts every brief by listening to the emotion a client wants to evoke, then translates that feeling into a palette of ingredients she knows intimately. Natural extracts anchor her compositions; she respects the season of harvest and the story each molecule carries. Modern synthetics serve only when they amplify a natural core, never to mask it. For her, scent is a quiet dialogue between skin and environment, a moment that unfolds without artifice.
