The 2020 Fragrance Foundation Notables will be recognized at an awards ceremony, attended by a who’s who of industry luminaries, on Thursday, February 13 at the LVMH Magic Room in New York City. The honorees are chosen not only for the work they’ve done to contribute to the growth and success of their respective companies but also for the potential they each show to truly better the fragrance industry going forward.
“We are pleased to honor this group of talented professionals who have shown exemplary leadership qualities and have already achieved measurable success,” Linda G. Levy, President of The Fragrance Foundation, tells the press in a statement announcing this year’s award winners.
“The 2020 Notables,” she says, “will join the prior years’ Notables and partner with The Fragrance Foundation as advisers, and participate in the development of strategies and future initiatives.”
