About Calice Becker
Calice Asancheyev-Becker (born c. 1964) is a French master perfumer and director of Givaudan Perfumery School. As of 2018 she was president of the International Society of Perfume Creators.
Becker has won the Lifetime Achievement Award from The Fragrance Foundation. Luca Turin and Tania Sanchez's Perfumes: The Guide praised many of Becker's creations, including a five-star rating for Beyond Paradise (2004, a “masterful portrait of a gorgeously fresh, fictional, ideal tropical flower”), Beyond Paradise for Men, and Tommy Girl (1996), calling the latter one of the most important of all time because of its influence. Chandler Burr, perfume critic for The New York Times, wrote of Becker’s 1999 creation for Dior, “It makes me think of a setting sun hitting a gold chain — gold has no scent, but if it did, it would smell like J’Adore.”
