Spyros Drosopoulos

Spyros has had a lifelong fascination with scent and smells. While studying psychology, he discovered the allure of perfume as a tool of seduction. His academic journey continued with a Ph.D. in Sleep and Memory Consolidation, completed Magna Cum Laude, where he encountered the world of niche perfumery. This discovery shifted his focus from the effects of fragrances to the intricacies of their creation. 


In 2009, he attended a workshop in perfume-making, igniting what would become his second career. Fast forward to the here and now, he is the founder and perfumer of Baruti perfumes where he blends artistry with science. He collaborates with other brands, explores the intersection of AI and perfumery, and teaches the popular Perfume Intensive course at the Institute for Art and Olfaction (IAO) in LA. 


Being self taught has been a blessing in disguise for this former academic as unhindered by conventions (what box?) and driven by a deep curiosity and rigorous research, he has developed into a versatile, well-rounded perfumer. His particular passion lies in reconstructing everyday scents, whether inspired by flowers, objects, or anything that catches his imagination. Spyros’s expertise spans niche and commercial perfumery, as well as experimental and artistic scent projects. Unlike many in the industry, he believes in demystifying the world of perfume. He enjoys sharing his knowledge in a typical scientific no-nonsense manner, with those eager to learn about the materials and techniques behind fragrance creation.
