Job Description

Company

Founded in 1758 in Grasse in the South of France, Maison Sozio is one of the pioneers in fine French perfumery.

The history of the Maison Sozio goes back to one of the very first families of perfumers in Grasse, having been at the origin of the community of glove-makers and perfumers.

With the integration of Synarome in 2021, Sozio ties back to its legacy by returning to its initial activity : raw materials. This acquisition enhances Sozio perfumers’ palette of premium ingredients – both synthetic and natural – and iconic specialties such as Ambrarome and Animalis.

With these generations of learning and knowledge, an expertise in natural fragrances and an international presence, Sozio has become a key player in the perfumery landscape.
