A Conversation with Spyros Drosopoulos

In a recent episode of the Internet of Senses Institute Podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Spyros Drosopoulos, neuroscientist, perfumer, and founder of the niche fragrance house Baruti. Our conversation bridged the worlds of art and science, reflecting Spyros’s unique journey from academia to independent perfumery.

Spyros discovered his passion for scent through a perfumery workshop, which quickly evolved into a personal exploration of hundreds of raw materials and the development of his own olfactory language. His creative yet analytical approach to perfumery is a perfect combination for his brand and creation of impactful scents.

Baruti, meaning “gunpowder” in Greek, symbolizes the bold, unforgettable fragrances Spyros creates. His work spans art installations, conservation projects, and innovative experiments with AI, showcasing how curiosity and courage can redefine your creative path.
