The Fragrance Foundation has been commemorating the fragrance industry’s best creative achievements since 1973, and the 2022 Frangrance Awards was back in full bloom on June 9, in New York City’s David H. Koch Theater at Lincoln Center after a three-year hiatus due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
Hosted by Extra TV host, Mario Lopez and his wife actress Courtney Lopez, the mission of the event is to inspire the world to discover the artistry and passion of fragrance.
“The Fragrance Foundation was thrilled to host a reunion at our signature TFFAwards. We shared our gratitude and celebrated fragrances that achieved great success, as consumers’ appreciation has grown for fragrances that enhance their lives,” said Linda Levy, President of The Fragrance Foundation.
Jason Wu, beauty guru and fashion designer; Tommy Hilfiger, the iconic designer; Kudzi Chikumbu, the TikTok Community Director; Chris Collins, the inventor of the fragrance brand; and many other notable guests were among the guests and presenters.
Ms. Levy announced the winners of their Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) Diversity Scholarships, which benefit FIT and students of diverse backgrounds interested in pursuing a career in fragrance. This comes on the heels of The Fragrance Foundation’s #FragranceForwardTFF initiative to advance diversity, which was launched last fall. The Fragrance Foundation FIT Diversity Scholarship is a one-of-a-kind opportunity that serves as an ongoing investment in the industry’s future as well as a pillar of support in allowing more diverse students to pursue their passion for fragrance through a meaningful, industry-focused education at FIT.
