Perfumer Mackenzie Reilly Celebrating the launch of Maison d’Etto Macanudo at The Future Perfect in NYC
I’m a very visual person and tend to think about fragrance in architectural terms. When I approach the creation of a fragrance structure, I conceptualize in terms of the space it occupies in the air. Not necessarily sillage, but more of a 3-D depiction which involves texture and sometimes color as well. I always do my first sketches by hand, never on the computer. Working with a pen as opposed to a keyboard feels much more intuitive to me, and my thoughts definitely flow better that way. I draw the formula like this, with ingredients scattered where I see them in space, sized proportionally, quantities noted. Then I put this into digital formula software so my assistant can prepare the trial for me to smell. From here I tend to work more on the computer as I develop and fine-tune. I do always go back to the page, however, when a big directional change is needed, or if I feel stuck.
