For the second year running, Isipca is hosting candidates from the Corpo35 perfume formulation competition on its premises in Versailles. Created by the rare perfume store "35 rue Damiette" in Rouen, the aim of this competition is to bring out new talent. Isipca, the leading international training school for perfumes, cosmetics and food flavors, is making its prestigious premises and laboratories available as part of this partnership. The candidates, accompanied by the partners in this operation, will be welcomed on Monday October 16.
SIPCA actively supports competitions to discover new perfumers or simply to showcase new innovations. This approach complements SIPCA's vocation to train young people in scientific and commercial olfactory professions, in initial training courses from Bac to Bac+6 level, and adults in continuing education.
The school is very proud of its students: In the 1st edition, Anne Dussourt, an Isipca student in a Master's degree in formulation and sensory evaluation, climbed to the top of the podium. Four young talents, current or former Isipca students, were among the five competition winners.
Corpo 35 was created by the perfume house "35 Damiette". Located in Rouen's antiques district, it's a place for olfactory experiences and encounters with the world of perfumes steeped in history. The boutique offers exclusive fragrances and the latest creations from renowned noses and perfumers.
This year's competition is sponsored by Robertet, world leader in sustainable natural raw materials, alongside the 2018 edition's partners: Centdegrés, Isipca, Jovoy, Maison de Parfum Berry, Saverglass, Aaptar, Arcange, Au Parfum, Cosmed, Ecomundo, Eurobougie, Incarta, Pole Pass, NormandyY Frenchtech, Spread.
"We love, we support. Encouraging vocations is a challenge. Isipca actively supports the Corpo35 competition, in particular through our logistical and scientific expertise. Nurturing new talent is an integral part of our DNA. Developing creativity is one of the key elements of the perfume industry. It's also a skill that we develop in our students who are destined for the olfactory professions." Cécile Ecalle, Isipca Director.
