management. Helping Berje expand its global partnerships throughout Europe,
Asia, Australia and South America, Gillian led the company’s global purchasing

graduating college, a headhunter helped her find her first job in the industry.
This introduction to perfumery while working in a marketing position, changed her fate

working there for 14 years; eventually going back to her roots in New York City to
become a Senior Perfumer at IFF.
