Education
After winning the French National Chemistry Olympiads in 1986, Laudamiel studies Mathematiques at Lycee Blaise Pascal in Clermont-Ferrand. He then took a master's degree in Chemistry from the European Higher Institute of Chemistry in Strasbourg, France. [2] 1991). As a Procter & Gamble Teaching Fellow, he taught chemistry and started a PhD at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1991. He dropped out of the PhD program after one year to become teaching assistant in Chemistry at Harvard University. In 1994 he joined the Procter & Gamble Creative Perfumery School in Newcastle-upon-Tyne (UK). He received his creative perfumery degree in 1997 from the Procter & Gamble European Center in Brussels (Belgium) where he was soon after promoted to senior perfumer. In 1999, he received the Procter & Gamble Special Recognition Award for his work in fragrance creation, especially in fabric softeners, and for his discoveries of new fragrance molecules and technologies.
In 1999–2000, he studied fine fragrance creation with master perfumer Pierre Bourdon, the creator of Cool Water, Kouros and Dolce Vita. In the year 2000, Laudamiel joined International Flavors & Fragrances in Manhattan where he polished his skills alongside perfumers Carlos Benaim, Sophia Grojsman and Pierre Wargnye.
Career
Laudamiel rapidly won projects on two of the most prestigious accounts at the time in New York City: Estee Lauder Company's (Tommy Hilfiger Cool Spray for Woman, 2001) and Polo Blue, Ralph Lauren, which was co-created in 2001 with Carlos Benaim and launched in 2002. He was winner of the FIFI Award "Fragrance Star of the Year" in 2003. Polo Blue (2002) and Fierce (2002), which were both co-authored by Laudamiel and Benaim, were nearly a decade later, still in the top 10 best selling men's fragrances on the US market , some claimed they were in the top 5.[3]
Laudamiel’s expertise has afforded him opportunities to participate as a judge on the juries of fragrance competitions. In 2003, he was a jury member for the Royal Fashion Institute in Antwerp, Belgium, and in 2004, he helped judge Gael magazine’s and Feeling magazine’s fragrances of the year. Notably in April 2014, he was the main judge for the Institute of Art and Olfaction (IAO) Fragrance Awards.[4]
