About Marianne Nawrocki Sabatier
Marianne Nawrocki Sabatier is a French perfumer who moves between independent creation and the education of a new generation. She translates what she receives from texts, landscapes, and local craft into material texture and development over time.
Career
She trained at the Grasse Institute of Perfumery and later taught there. As an independent perfumer, her work includes brand fragrances, scent for spaces, and bespoke commissions, alongside lectures and workshops. Both creation and teaching emphasize the foundations of smelling, assembling, and articulating raw materials.
Creative Style & Philosophy
She respects the complexity of natural materials and classical composition, allowing the variations of high-quality ingredients to become part of a formula. A commissioned place or story is not illustrated literally but separated into humidity, earth, the opening of a flower, or the dryness of wood. Independence lets her seek a point where a brand's narrative and honesty toward materials can coexist.
Signature Works
- *Midnight Eau de Parfum* — Night florals, woods, and warm air drawn into a quiet trail.
