My life has always been guided by curiosity and by a deep desire to understand civilizations, the history of peoples, and the cultures of the world. From a young age, I have been drawn to what is unconventional, to paths less traveled, to authentic encounters, and to everything that carries depth, mystery, and humanity within it.
For three years, I experienced life at sea through sailing, an experience that taught me the meaning of freedom, simplicity, and a profound connection with nature. For me, travel has never been merely about moving from one place to another, but rather an ongoing inner and outer quest.
For more than five years, I traveled across Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Iran, and the great deserts of the Middle East, living intense experiences often far removed from conventional tourist routes. I spent three months in Konya alongside the Mevlevi Sufi dervishes, immersing myself in their spiritual philosophy, rituals, and pursuit of inner harmony. I also lived for two months in the desert of Petra, sharing time with the local inhabitants, listening to ancient stories, and learning the value of silence, hospitality, and simplicity.
My journeys eventually led me to India, Nepal, Bhutan,Thailand, Malesia, places where I encountered extraordinary cultures, ancient philosophies, refined thinkers, and people capable of leaving a profound mark on my life. I met luminous souls: educated and spiritual individuals, but also humble people, often far from the spotlight of the world, who preserve an authentic and rare wisdom.
Over the years, I continued traveling extensively throughout Brazil, Argentina, Sud Africa, all Europe, and Russia, crossing breathtaking landscapes at the edge of dreams: endless deserts, sacred mountains, silent seas, forests, steppes, and cities suspended between history and modernity. Every place has left vivid images within me — intense colors, fragrances, emotions, and memories that continue to live in my heart.
I have always traveled with the utmost respect for the people, traditions, and cultures I encountered, striving to listen before observing, and to understand before judging. The hardships of independent travel, the unexpected, fatigue, and uncertainty made every experience even more authentic, transforming travel into a continuous school of life.
I carry within me moments that belong not only to memory, but to something deeper: fragments of life, encounters, and fleeting instants etched into the soul, like images scented by time, still capable today of moving me and reminding me how immense, fragile, and wonderfully human the world truly is.
From this long journey of travel, encounters, and experiences, my niche perfume collections were also born — created as sensory extensions of my life, of the emotions I have lived, and of my continuous search through culture, beauty, memory, and imagination.
Each fragrance represents, for me, a story — an invisible journey capable of evoking places, atmospheres, encounters, and profound sensations. I do not consider perfume merely an accessory, but rather a form of emotional art capable of speaking directly to the soul through olfactory memory.
With Onyrico, I wanted to pay tribute to the great history, art, and beauty of Made in Italy. It is a collection inspired by the personalities, places, and cultural wonders of Italy that have left a mark on universal history. Through these fragrances, I narrate the elegance, creative genius, poetry, and timeless charm of Italy, transforming historical memory into olfactory emotion.
With Anima Mundi — “the soul of the world” — I instead gave voice to my love for the planet, for the cultures encountered during my travels, and for the infinite wonders of nature. This collection was born from the desire to portray humanity in all its diversity: the traditions, symbols, spiritualities, and curiosities of the peoples of the world. Through the Experience collection, I also explore nature’s most fascinating elements: deserts, forests, spices, rare flowers, remote landscapes, and atmospheres I personally lived during my travels. Each fragrance is conceived as an immersive sensory experience, a bridge between distant places and inner worlds.
Finally, with Cigno Nero Milano, I wanted to unite imagination, symbolism, and introspection. This collection pairs mythological animals and legendary creatures with human virtues, creating fragrances that speak of inner strength, courage, transformation, wisdom, and mystery. It is a project born from a fascination with ancient symbols, legends, and universal archetypes, reinterpreted in a contemporary way through the art of perfumery.
All of my creations are infused with the experiences of a life lived among different cultures, extraordinary landscapes, profound human encounters, personal explorations of ancient philosophies, and a continuous search for authenticity. Every perfume reflects a fragment of my journey: emotions transformed into essences, memories becoming invisible matter, and stories that continue to live on through the universal language of fragrance.
