Violaine Collas

Violaine Collas is a Senior Perfumer at Mane, Paris.

A Parisian by upbringing, she studied at ISIPCA in Versailles alongside Dominique Ropion and Maurice Roucel, and was trained in fine fragrance by Ropion at her first company, Symrise, where she spent twelve years.

Her career took her through Germany and the United States before a period in personal care, after which she returned to her first love and joined Mane in 2011.

Her creative signature plays on contrasting accords harmonised with precision: luminous, textural, and thoroughly wearable.

Her credits include Amouage, Dolce & Gabbana, Atkinsons, Lalique, BDK Parfums, État Libre d'Orange, and L'Occitane.
