Today I will continue the technical series on perfumery that many of you have enjoyed, and I will cover the topic of accords and bases. What are these concepts? How are they used in perfumery?
In my video, I explain the differences and nuances and will give some ideas to the perfumers-in-training.
I am Victoria Belim-Frolova, a Ukrainian-American author, ISIPCA professor and perfumer. My work weaves together stories of scent, memory, and resilience.
Through books, fragrance, and teaching, I explore how beauty can heal and restore us.

Luca and Victoria speak for 1.5h on topics included, but not limited to: vintage perfumes, our favorite fragrances, trends we hate, industry gossip. No one will be spared. All will be entertained. Funds will be used to support charity projects in Ukraine.
