Belgium Born 1978 Le Parfum de Nathalie

Works at the intersection of visual art and scent, often creating concept-driven fragrances linked to specific spaces or narratives, such as a museum collection or a design brand’s identity.[1][3][4] Her compositions are described in brand materials as subtle, unisex and finely balanced, focusing on refined ingredients rather than strong projection, exemplified by Hedgren Eau de Parfum.[4]
