Meet the genius behind the Katy Perry Killer Queen Fragrance royal masterpiece, Laurent Le Guernec – a self-made success with a palpable passion for perfume.
Laurent Le Guernec was born in Paris, but spent part of his childhood in Grasse. He attended the ISIPCA perfumery school, and worked for Laboratoire Monique Rémy in Grasse. He has worked for Fragrance Resources and Mane, and has been with International Flavors & Fragrances since 2002.
His love for the work of fragrance creation manifests itself in the enthusiasm he brings to each and every project. Always willing to rise to the challenge, there is not much that this perfumer has not already mastered. This is perfectly demonstrated in his royally pleasing Katy Perry Killer Queen fragrance!
Sculpting fragrances that are subtle, yet memorable, Laurent is able to engage directly with the emotionality of his customer. He says it best himself, “I don’t believe in shocking the customer to seem creative, for me, it has to be approachable.” His accomplishments include Estee Lauder Pure White Linen Light Breeze, Outspoken by Fergie, Sean John I Am King, and an impressive eighteen fragrances for Bond No. 9. And now with Katy Perry’s Killer Queen Fragrance, we are sure to see him owning the throne once again!
