Latest publication from Allchemix
The Scent and Taste of Carbon
Expression Cosmetique magazine #94
July-August 2025
Alain Frix, Allchemix Consultancy
A Fresh Look at the Future of Fragrances and Flavours: Sustainability or Fossil Dependency ?
In issue No. 94 of Expression Cosmétique , I delve into a paradox facing our industry: How can a sector as sensitive as fragrances and flavours — shaping our daily lives but representing only 0.04% of global GDP — balance growth and sustainability in a transitioning world?
The article titled "The Scent and Taste of Carbon" explores:
* The ongoing dominance of petrochemicals despite the climate crisis.
* The shift from natural to synthetic ingredients, illustrated by the case of L-menthol.
* The industrial relocation to Asia: competitive gains, but at what environmental cost?
* The current limitations of bio-based alternatives.
* Concrete pathways for a more sustainable, resilient, and responsible fragrance industry.
An industry to reinvent, between super molecules, breakthrough innovations, and collective responsibility.
Discover the full article (10 pages) in Expression Cosmétique N°94 , one of most comprehensive magazine on cosmetics and perfumery.
