Greetings and Welcome to the Hello and welcome to the Guild website. I'm Anya McCoy, the President of the Guild and a professional perfumer. When I started the first modern natural perfumery line in the USA in 1991, an organization such as this was just a dream. Now we are recognized the 'greenest of the green' because we hold our professional perfumers to a higher standard than any other organization. We welcome all who love 100% natural fragrances and we work diligently to advance the public education and artisan and independent perfumer aspects of our art.
