Michele
Marin
The discovery of perfume happens in
adolescence when, at the age of thirteen,
he was captured by a friend’s perfume: “Jardin
de bagatelle” by Jean-Paul Guerlain.
Since then, his artistic education will
develop along the paths of sensorial
and olfactory creation.
After University, for fifteen years he immersed
himself in the world of Cinema, Theater and
Opera, working in the most important Italian
theaters as assistant director with master
Franco Zeffirelli and director Marco Bellocchio.
From this fund of experience, made of
images, notes and accords, harmonies and
counterpoints, he discovers again the hidden
treasure of perfumes and smells through the
theater tours, which bring him to develop
his innate olfactory universe.
His curiosity drives him to discover the world
of Artistic Perfumery and to get entirely
absorbed in the study of fragrances.
He begins a training path in Italy with
“Mouillettes & Co” and continues his study
in composition and formulation at
“Cinquiéme Sens” in Paris.
He places side by side a first experience with
the brand “Etro” and later on he is given an
important assignment as Retail Manager
of “Olfattorio-Bar à Parfums” in Florence,
enriching his knowledge path as sales trainer
as well as in marketing and events planning.
In 2010, with his first triptych of perfumed
candles for the prestigious Chianti’s wine
brand “Castello di Ama”, he creates, with
simplicity, balance and originality, the
structure of some olfactory emotions, later
developing a complete home fragrances line.
In 2013 he starts the Olfactory Creation
brand “Infragranti Parfumeur” developing
collaboration with important realities in the
world of fashion, hòtellerie and furniture
among which Flair, Gini Fragranze, Stefano
Bemer, Hotel Villa Cheta Elite and Roy Roger’s.
In 2014 the continuous research for new
olfactory emotions brings him to the tailored
creation of the first fine fragrances.
