The annual ‘Speed Smelling’ fragrance collection offers our perfumers the opportunity to express their creativity with total freedom. This year, IFF has chosen to honor its American roots with the theme “An American in Paris ”. With her perfume ‘Lucky Cola’, Nelly Hachem Ruiz chose to step back in time and fully embrace our theme. Discover in this video how she was able to reinterpret, through tobacco and cola scents, the important symbolism of the first gifts offered to the French soldiers by the GIs 78 years ago, after the Normandy landings (D-day) of World War II. @iffinc @nellyhachemruiz_perfumer #artofperfumery #artistsofperfumery #speedsmelling #anamericaninparis #creativity #perfume
