The constant search for qualitative raw materials is crucial for the achievement of a great result. The same formula performed with materials coming from different suppliers will sort out a different olfactory profile.
My perfumes are conceived in my laboratory in Amsterdam. When the formula is ready, I can finally order the raw materials in order to mix them.
The resulting concentrate is then sent out to an artisanal atelier in Italy which put it in alcohol, let it age, and then take care of packing it.
The creation of a perfume is a very long and complex process, and it takes me a hermit life to devise a formula which I then blend, holding my breath at every drop I add as in a sacred ritual.
At those ecstatic and silent moments, I feel like an alchemist which – through a transformation – gives birth to something new, which is not the simple addition of different materials.
After I graduated in History of Art in Florence, my passion for perfume making started, by a book on natural perfumery and a handful of essential oils. Since then, I’ve been studying and experimenting on my own. I have resided in many cities – Florence, Berlin, Luxembourg, Amsterdam – while working in art book publishing.
Once in Amsterdam – where I currently live – I decided to quit my previous job and launch my own line of perfumes.

Renaissance captain Giovanni Dalle Bande Nere, together with his loyalty, spartan life-style, and moral commitment inspired this creation. Imagine the smell of a military camp: the sweetness of wild shrubs, the smoke of campfire, the smell of leather horse tacks. A powdery rose – symbolizing his secret mistress – rounds up an intense core of vetiver, the great protagonist of this perfume.

Top Notes: Aromatic whispers of wild shrubs and herbs create an initial impression of untamed nature, intertwined with a subtle smokiness reminiscent of campfire embers. A hint of leather adds a touch of ruggedness, evoking the scent of horse tack.
Heart Notes: Powdery rose emerges, a delicate counterpoint to the rugged opening, symbolizing a hidden romance. The heart is dominated by the earthy, tenacious presence of vetiver, lending a deep, sophisticated character to the fragrance.
Base Notes: The lingering essence of vetiver persists, grounding the fragrance with its woody, smoky aroma. The smoky accord deepens, mingling with the remaining traces of leather and rose to create a warm, lingering dry down. The overall impression is one of strength, mystery, and a touch of hidden tenderness.
