Louise Turner is a renowned perfumer who has created some of the most successful fragrances for various brands in the industry. Born and raised in the south of England, Turner discovered her love for scent through the wildflowers in her hometown of Kent, particularly honeysuckle and lilac. She went on to pursue a degree in dentistry but found herself drawn to perfumery during a temporary job at Quest (now Givaudan) during a break from her studies.

Turner has been a perfumer at Givaudan since 2000 and has worked with various brands such as Roberto Cavalli, Thierry Mugler, and Maison Martin Margiela. She has a style that is joyful, luminous, and uplifting, often inspired by her favorite flowers such as orange blossom, jasmine, wisteria, or tuberose. Turner is known for her ability to evoke not only the scent of flowers but also the texture of petals and the sense of pleasure they bring.

Some of Turner's notable creations include Boss The Scent For Her Magnetic for Hugo Boss, Chérie for Kate Spade, Bad Boy Extreme for Carolina Herrera, and Good Girl Collector Gold Fantasy 2022 for Carolina Herrera. She also created Lazy Sunday Morning for Maison Martin Margiela, which reflects her love for nature and the color white.

Turner describes her work for commercial brands as more restrictive due to consumer testing and the involvement of various people in the creation process. On the other hand, working with niche brands allows her more freedom and the ability to follow her own ideas without the need for compromise.

Turner's inspiration comes from various sources, including her childhood memories of the scents of Kent and her travels to different countries, art, colors, music, and food. She believes that creating perfumes is a labor of love that demands passion, confidence, and a thick skin as criticism is part of daily life.
