Thierry Bessard

Thierry Bessard often talks about the power of fate, or rather about one fateful moment when his life was defined. After his medical college, Thierry wanted to engage in research. He came across an article about French perfumery school ISIPCA. He immediately wanted to make such a career – science and creativity tempted him in equal measures. Ironically, or perhaps accidentally, his grandmother later told him that his grandfather was also a perfumer. Thierry inherited a collection of recipes from his grandfather. When it comes to his career, Thierry is first and foremost a humble man. He believes that his career is "more of a hobby than a job". Whenever he is asked what he is doing, he often says he is a chemist to avoid too much attention.
