France Born 0 Lancôme

Known for work on Lancôme Hypnôse, which combines luminous florals and a warm gourmand-woody base, illustrating her facility with modern floral-oriental structures and balancing radiance with sensual depth. Her teaching and genealogy work in Grasse suggest a strong focus on classical fragrance families and structured, analytical composition.

About

Pauline Zanoni is a French perfumer closely linked to Lancôme. A 2015 profile in Belgian magazine Knack Weekend describes her, then 29, as house perfumer for Lancôme and notes that she was responsible for the development of Lancôme Hypnôse. In parallel, she has worked as a fragrance evaluator and teacher in Grasse: a Dailymotion/Grasse Institute of Perfumery interview presents her as a fragrance evaluator and GIP (Grasse Institute of Perfumery) teacher, and a video from AMET/Expressions Parfumées highlights her role as evaluator and genealogy professor in Grasse, where she teaches fragrance genealogy and evaluation techniques.
