Perfumer

and
Apprentice
American Society of Perfumers
Delphine Perdon Rupnow was born in France and spent her early childhood near the Alps, where the abundance of natural herbs, wild berries, woods and flowers shaped her formative years. This exposure to Nature’s herb garden ignited her olfactive curiosity and her passion for scents grew as she went on to earn two Master’s Degrees: the first in Organic Chemistry at the University of Versailles, and the second one in Flavors and Fragrances at the University of Montpellier.
With an international focus and a strong technical background, Delphine has worked and trained at various companies such as Colgate Palmolive, Takasago, in France, and Sillage Aromatique (which became Bell Flavors & Fragrances SEA), in Singapore. She is now part of the Perfumers’ team at Bell in the Chicago.
Inspirations: ‘I am inspired by the emotional memories from my childhood in France: the scent of Kenzo ‘Parfum d’ete’ floral and musky sillage on my mother’s skin, the green, earthy and penetrating odor of nature at night in the countryside, and the gourmand smell of a fresh baguette with butter, jam and a warm cup of coffee. Travelling the world to discover new cultures, scents and cuisines is also a big part of my inspiration, bringing all kinds of new scents to my collection of olfactive references at each step. I am amazed to see how odors can transport one back into a specific location or period of life, just like a time machine.’
Bell Flavors and Fragrances is proud to announce the hire of Delphine Perdon Rupnow at Bell’s Headquarters in Northbrook, IL and Sandra Aparicio at Bell LATAM in Colombia.
Delphine Perdon Rupnow joined the analytical service department as a senior analytical chemist. Hailing from Bell’s manufacturing plant in Singapore, where she last held the position of GC-MS Perfumer/QC Manager, for the past 8 years, and having worked at both Takasago and Colgate-Palmolive, DelphIne’s experience will be very helpful to the department. She has both a Bachelor’s and Master’s Degree in Organic Chemistry from the University of Versailles, and a Master’s Degree in Physics and Chemistry from the University of Montpellier II, where her area of research was flavors and fragrances. Delphine’s abilities will help support and enhance Bell’s analytical service department
