Olivier Cresp

Olivier Cresp is a French perfumer at Firmenich, born into a Grasse perfumery family (his sister Françoise Caron and daughter Anaïs are also in the trade). His breakthrough, Mugler Angel (1992), launched an entire gourmand-patchouli genre. His other work includes Dolce&Gabbana Light Blue, (with others) YSL Black Opium and Nina Ricci Nina. He works across the spectrum, from mass-market to niche.
