Karine Dubreuil-Sereni

Karine Dubreuil-Sereni is a French perfumer born and raised in Grasse — the world capital of perfumery. Growing up surrounded by jasmine, orange blossom, mimosa, and citrus shaped an olfactory sensitivity that would define her entire career.

She trained at the renowned Roure Bertrand Dupont school (now part of Givaudan) and has worked at houses including Takasago, where she reached the rank of Master Perfumer, as well as Florasynth, Drom, and Mane. Over the course of her career she has created more than 140 fragrances for brands including Gucci, Givenchy, Azzaro, Lanvin (Éclat d'Arpège), Gucci Pour Homme II, and Salvatore Ferragamo Incanto Shine.

Known for unexpected combinations, a fresh and confident creative instinct, and a particular affinity for sandalwood, she draws inspiration from childhood memories, travel, and art. Her work is defined by its versatility and the emotional resonance it leaves behind.
