Matthias Vey had the honour to present at the Annual Meeting of the Germany Association of Perfumers (DGP). He highlighted how regulatory challenges (internal, via the IFRA Standards) and external have developed over the period of 30 years, since he is deeply involved in the field of fragrances, marking his 25 years within IFRA this year.
The event took place in Holzminden, one of the most relevant cities in Germany when it comes to the fragrance industry and included a visit of the recently opened interactive museum to experience the world of fragrance and flavor – Sensoria.
