Li YE

Li YE

Master 1 Student at the École Supérieure du Parfum et de la Cosmétique in Grasse, specializing in Perfume Creation Management

Four years ago, Li came to France and immersed herself in learning perfumery at the École Supérieure du Parfum in Grasse, specializing in perfume creation management. She already holds a degree in psychology from China and is also a freediver. Passionate about olfaction, perfume creation, olfactory cultures, and nature—especially aromatic plants and the ocean—she completed internships at the French fragrance house MANE, working in both the creation laboratory and the analysis of the physicochemical properties of raw materials.

Actively engaged in international projects, she has led cultural exchange programs in perfumery between France and China. She is also featured in the TF1 documentary Grasse, la ville du parfum, and her vision aligns with that of Maison Lancôme regarding the relationship between perfume and nature. Curious and passionate, she constantly draws inspiration from nature and is committed to becoming a perfumer who honors both nature and the environment.
