About Us

The British Society of Perfumers was formed in 1963 with the vision to promote the interests of individuals actively engaged as perfumers and to improve the status of perfumers by seeking wider recognition of perfumery as a profession.

Recently the Society has expanded to include Associate Members, Student Members and Friends of the Society, with a renewed purpose of promoting and supporting the craft of perfumers and related roles within the fragrance industry throughout the UK. As a forum for access to the fragrance industry many of our events are open to the public.

Become a member

We have 6 levels of membership from Full Perfumer Member to BSP Friend which allows you access to a vibrant community of individuals involved in different aspects of the fragrance industry, plus a full calendar of fragrance orientated events. 

As a Full Perfumer, Associate Perfumer, Associate or Affiliate Member of the British Society of Perfumers, you can log in to the Members Area (top right, “My Area“). There you will be able to view video recordings of past lectures, presentations, exclusive write ups from events and minutes of meetings.

Discover our awards

The British Society of Perfumers hosts annual Fragrance Excellence Awards, in which fine fragrance and consumer product categories are judged by industry peers – members of the Society. The award ceremony is held during our One Day Symposium in May.

“Pleasures, small pleasures: I like the pleasures we pilfer from everyday life, they brighten the day. They are mundane, they feel repetitive, they reassure. If we overlook them we deprive ourselves of the joys that make life bearable.”
