Vincenzo Arpaia

Born in Naples in 1990, Vincenzo Arpaia has been captivated by scents since an early age, driven by an innate curiosity to explore the olfactory nuances of different materials. After graduating in Biology and specializing in Clinical Cosmetology, he decided to turn his passion into his profession. He completed several courses in Italy before being admitted to the prestigious perfumery school ISIPCA in Versailles, Paris. Arpaia collaborates with the leading fragrance houses and renowned perfumers, continuously expanding his experience. Recognized as an emerging talent in creative perfumery, his approach combines innovation with a deep technical knowledge. His debut as a perfumer marked the beginning of his own style—creating sophisticated, unconventional, high-performance fragrances that evoke curiosity, desire, and a sense of belonging. Fascinated by contrasts, he stands out for combining elements that appear to be opposites in order to create unique olfactory harmonies. A firm advocate of natural animal raw materials, he feels a special affinity for pure ambergris, pure oud, sandalwood, and marine-inspiration notes, such as ozone and aquatic accords. His command of these complex ingredients allows him to compose bold yet balanced creations, showcasing an unparalleled interpretation of modern perfumery.
