Perfumer
Théo Belmas
With a childhood deeply rooted in the south of France, from a very young age he developed a curiosity for the arts and fashion. Gardening with his grandparents surrounded by roses, trips to India, visits to exhibitions in the largest museums, listening to classical music… So many experiences that he had to translate and express through another form of art, perfumery. His taste for music led him to play the drums for 13 years and to start dancing at 19, while studying molecular chemistry. After a few years working in Grasse, he joined Symrise in 2019 to focus on the reformulation of fragrances and perfumery raw materials. He devotes himself to creativity, technique, and sustainability, maintaining a strong connection with dance. As he always likes to say: “a passion always feeds the other.”
