Christophe Laudamiel is a master perfumer for DreamAir studios in New York City and Bélair Lab in Tokyo. He is known for his unique olfactory compositions, leaving a trail of high-end signature skin fragrances and artistic scent sculptures.

Beside his work on beauty products and education, Christophe is dedicated to bringing ambient scenting to the next level of quality and emotions while also doing advocacy work for farmers, chemists and of course perfumers. His Air Sculpture® work defines the highly customized moods at many hotels, retailers and in artistic installations. His work was integrated in pieces by Isabel Andriessen, Peter De Cupere, Orlan, Thierry Mugler and Anicka Yi and has entered the likes of the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Grasse Perfume Museum, the Harvard University Archives, the Swarovski Foundation and the Tibetan Rubin Museum of Art, NYC. He is currently implementing new wellness scents qualified with e-gamers champions or in collaboration with Under Armor and Rohto Pharmaceuticals among professional soccer players in Fukushima. He is co-developing a patent-pending precision device to play scent-tracks with movies.

Christophe has exhibited at major venues including the Basel, Cooper Hewitt, Guggenheim-NYC/Bilbao and MoMA-Istanbul museums, World Economic Forums in Davos, and inside the USA and Swiss Pavilions at World Expos. His creative and inventive work, including scent chandeliers and scent paraboles, are represented by Mianki gallery in Berlin. Christophe is the winner of several awards in chemistry and perfumery including a lifetime award from the Institute of Art and Olfaction in Los Angeles, and is an inventor on 17 patents.  He is a relentless advocate of perfumery education and ethics with 150 lectures and speeches to the public, law makers and in the academia, along with a manifesto, several book chapters and scientific articles, a constant quest for new or little known ingredients and establishing a revolutionary code of ethics.

Christophe is only married to perfumery and his one baby is the best nose in the laboratory: Yuki.
