Amazing! Product suggestions got added practically just as I finished typing! :)
IT professional living and working in Provence with a huge passion for perfume. My ever fragrant days are shared between work, my partner, my online vintage shop and our adorable little fella as well as wearing / testing my ever growing collection of large perfume bottles (100), miniatures (400 ) and commercial vials / decants (200 ).

Living in a small village in the Provence region with my partner and baby boy Karekin born on 5th September 2011. Studying herbalism, botanics and aromatherapy as well as making beauty potions, lotions and baby care products with natural / organic ingredients in my spare time (which is very little but I try!)

Currently looking for work in the aromatic plants / essential oils / cosmetics / perfume industry as a qualified technician in Provence. As part of my studies I did a two-month work placement in a herbalist shop close to my home making a new line of natural cosmetics (massage oils, body lotions and essential oil blends) and another two months in a lab near Marseille formulating organic beauty products.
Also as lillamarta on Ciao UK, formerly EFL teacher and Software Engineer for 9 years in London now relocated to Provence, Marseille. I recently graduated with a biochemistry degree at the University of Provence, Marseille, specialising in the production and commercialisation of Mediterranean aromatic plants.
For the past eight years I've been making my own cosmetic / body care products using natural plant extracts / essential and vegetable oils and started collecting perfumes, essential oils, spices and herbs. I'm passionate about perfumery so I train my nose by testing and reviewing fragrances and learning the olfactory profiles of fragrant raw materials and also planning to complete studies with a Master degree in Fragrances and Flavourings in the near future.
