Sophie Normand

Fragrance expert

Sophie has been fascinated by perfume since childhood. In 2008, she created My Blue Hour, a blog dedicated to the world of fragrances that soon became a reference for perfume lovers in France. Subsequently, she lent her pen to the Olfathèque, the online encyclopaedia created by Cinquième Sens, where she followed the Raw Materials and Formulation course. There she discovered the perfumer’s palette in detail and practices the evaluation.

Today she is an editor for Fragrantica and Premium Beauty News, two web publications where she shares her passion for raw materials. She also writes for niche brands.

In parallel with this editorial activity, she runs olfactory workshops and trend tours dedicated to perfumery trends for both amateurs and professionals.
