Olivier Polge

Olivier Polge (born July 30, 1974) is a French perfumer. He is the house perfumer for Chanel and has created fragrances including Misia, Boy, and Chanel's No. 5 L’Eau.

Polge's father is perfumer Jacques Polge, who served as Chanel's perfumer for 37 years. When Polge was a child, he wanted to be a classical music pianist, but was not a "good pianist."

In 2012, Olivier Polge, in collaboration with perfumers Dominique Ropion and Anne Flipo, created the famous fragrance La Vie Est Belle for the Lancome brand. In 2013, Polge became a perfumer at Chanel. His father retired in 2015, and Polge took over as head perfumer.

In 2018 Polge created the Bleu de Chanel Parfum, a new version of the fragrance Bleu de Chanel, originally created by his father.
