LUCA OFFICIALLY BEGAN IN THE WORLD OF FRAGRANCES IN 2007, AT THE END OF HIS CLASSIC AND ECONOMIC STUDIES.

HE STUDIES RAW MATERIALS WITH THE JEAN CARLES METHOD. HE IMMEDIATELY STARTS EXPERIMENTING WITH AN INTERNSHIP IN A FRAGRANCE HOUSE BASED IN GRASSE. AFTER RETURNING TO ITALY, HE SIGNED HIS FIRST CREATIONS AND IN 2011 HE FOUNDED ATELIER FRAGRANZE MILANO SRL WITH HIS FATHER.

HE IS NOW PERFUMER AND CEO.

My Top Three Raw Materials?

- The Iris for his elegance.
The Sandal because it is extremely ductile: it can gives intensity and character to a masculine note - perhaps linked to a spice - and at the same time gives softness and sensuality to a feminine - for example, with a white flower.
The Cashmeran because it is surprising: you don't expect a molecule to be so extraordinary and addictive! -
