ARTURETTO LANDI

Arturetto Landi is a Senior Perfumer at MANE Dubai with an illustrious career spanning multiple cities and countries. He initially pursued a career as a chemist but stumbled upon the world of perfumery during a casual job with a fragrance company in England. This sparked his passion for scent, leading him to train at H&R in Holzminden and eventually work in New York, Paris, Tokyo, Vienna, and Dubai.

Growing up on the Italian Riviera and influenced by his father's profession as a chef, Landi developed a love for the sensual and complex. He draws inspiration from both his past and far-off places, mainly the scents of Arabia. His fragrances are opulent, grand, and composed like a symphony for the nose.

Landi recently launched his perfume line, PROFUMI D'ART, after dreaming of doing so for many years. He introduced a new perfume system, packaging, and way of using scents that were inspired by the coffee industry. His line caters to a worldwide audience, with one fragrance, ART04, having a Middle Eastern orientation.

Landi's fascination with Agarwood, which he discovered during his first visit to the Middle East 25 years ago, has led to his mastery of creating fragrances that incorporate rare and precious materials. He prefers warm, woody, and leathery qualities in his oud oils and dislikes those that are overly animalic and cheesy.

In Landi's opinion, the qualities that make a great perfumer are modesty, patience, imagination, passion, and the ability to recognize good things.
