If you're a perfume lover, you've probably already heard of Vanina Muracciole, a freelance perfumer based in Paris. But are you familiar with her career, her vision and her creations? In this article, we invite you to discover the world of this olfactory artist, who has made a name for herself in the world of perfumery.

Vanina Muracciole was born in Corsica, an island that has shaped her imagination and sensibility. She grew up surrounded by Mediterranean scents such as maquis, lemon, jasmine, and fig. She became interested in perfume at an early age, collecting bottles and playing with them.

After graduating in chemistry and from ISICPA in Versailles, she began her career with MANE in Milan and Grasse, before returning to Paris to work with master perfumer Thomas Fontaine at the Jean Patou fashion house.

In 2012, she decided to set up as an independent perfumer, so that she could express her creativity without constraints. She joined the International Society of Perfumer-Creators, which brings together the most talented and recognized professionals in the profession. She has also set up her own laboratory in Paris, where she has over 2,000 raw materials at her disposal to compose her fragrances.

Vanina Muracciole works with established perfume houses such as Guerlain, Givenchy and Dior, as well as more exclusive brands such as Alexandre J, Masque Milano and Nejma. She has also taken part in artistic and cultural projects, such as creating a fragrance for the "Le Parfum dans tous les sens" exhibition at the Musée du Luxembourg in 2013.

Her olfactory signature is characterized by a constant search for emotion, which she brings to life through original and surprising combinations. She likes to play with contrasts, textures, and colours, blending floral, fruity, woody and spicy notes. She draws her inspiration from personal memories, travels, and encounters.
