Our Finalist Judges have the uniquely difficult task of sitting with the perfumes that made it to the final round, each a standout in its own right. When we say the creators behind every finalist and honorable mention perfume should feel extremely proud, we mean it. And we know the judges feel the same. 

Here, we call on those with deep expertise, sharp instincts, and perspectives from across the globe, for the Art and Olfaction Awards are a truly international affair. 

We are deeply grateful to these judges for the insight and care they bring to the final stretch.

✨ Carlos Benaïm’s night in Paris ✨

The fragrance world gathered to celebrate the launch of A Scented Journey, the new book by Master Perfumer Carlos Benaïm, written in collaboration with Denyse Beaulieu and published by Nez editions.

A night filled with scents and memories — the very ones that have shaped his extraordinary path from Tangier to New York, Paris, and beyond.
 
Through this book, Carlos shares his life in perfumes: "to pour these drops of memory into bottles, thus transforming the intimate into the universal"
 
Cheers to a living legend and the masterpiece of his life 🥂
