”Attending ISIPCA meant dropping everything to move to France and committing three years to a subject I knew very little about. Yet somehow – at the same time – it was the most obvious choice. That’s how it was for me, and that’s how it was for my entire class, which felt more like a family than anything else.” – Andrew Everett, Junior Perfumer, IFF New York
“Never in a million years would I have dreamed of a better job. At ISIPCA I trained my nose to identify ingredients and their combinations, I was exposed to different cultures, I met some of my best friends in life and had the opportunity to work on something that I truly love. If you are curious, passionate about perfume, consumers, ingredients and want to dive into this magical world of fragrances, you should join the Scent Design & Creation Program – it’s a life changing experience”. – Andressa Santana West Barbosa, Scent Design Manager based in Holmdal, NJ.
”The world of perfumery has always been a haze of illusion for me. The ISIPCA Scent Design and Creation program opened the gate and lead me into that world, and the experience has been the light that illuminated my path to become a perfumer” – Hyunmin Shin, Junior Perfumer, IFF France
“My two internship mentors from the Netherlands came to my graduation in France and they kindly shared their advice on the importance of believing in myself. I also learned from my experience at ISIPCA that understanding and accepting the differences in one of the keys to success in an international environment and this insight will help me to work all over the world in the future.” – Shinichiro Oba, Junior Perfumer, Dubai
