Collection: Stephane Bengana
Stéphane Bengana is a perfumer at Symrise, based in Paris.
Born in Clermont-Ferrand, he knew from an early age that he wanted to become a perfumer.
He holds a Masters in Chemistry and a DESS in Perfumery from ISIPCA, beginning his career at Haarmann & Reimer in Paris before moving to Grasse to join Payan Bertrand, where he developed a deep expertise in naturals.
After fourteen years in France he relocated to Dubai as Senior Perfumer at CPL Aromas, eventually becoming Perfumery Director, a nine-year tenure that gave him a formative immersion in Middle Eastern fragrance culture.
He later joined Symrise.
His credits include Fragrance Du Bois and a co-creation for Queen Elizabeth II titled Adamas.
