From IFF Scent:
The IFF team is deeply saddened to announce the passing of Jane Josephine, VP perfumer.
Jane was a remarkable individual whose life was a testament to the power of togetherness and positivity.
Born in Jakarta, Indonesia, Jane's journey began in the bustling suburbs, where she developed a passion for fresh air and scents.
In 1982, her curiosity led her to the IFF production site, igniting her life-long love for fragrance.
Jane's career at IFF was marked by a unique approach and dedication to understanding consumer preferences. She thrived in team environments, always prioritizing harmony and balance in her creations. Jane's fragrances were a reflection of her belief in the therapeutic power of scent, bringing joy and confidence to those who experienced them. Her advice to younger generations was to embrace positivity and find balance in life.
Jane's impact on the IFF team was profound. She was not only a leader but also a mentor and a source of inspiration for her colleagues, with a strong personality and an unwavering commitment to the company.
Her collaborative spirit and unwavering commitment to excellence fostered a culture of innovation and creativity within the team. Jane's legacy lives on through the beautiful and accessible fragrances she crafted, and the many perfumers she mentored, turning everyday rituals into elegant dreams.
Our thoughts are with her children Jessica, Karina and Ivan in these difficult times.
