Italian artistic perfumery designed to evoke and combine emotions

About Arte Profumi

Arte Profumi is an Italian fragrance house whose creators connect perfumery with visual art and sensory interpretation. Michele Iannone, Mariagrazia Iannone and Monica Martinez developed the house from a shared artistic interest, first creating scents to accompany modern and contemporary art before extending the idea into wearable fragrances.

The house is based in Rome and sells a concentrated perfume range through its own shop. The official shop lists 32 current perfumes across the Parfum, Artissima and Hybris collections. The Parfum line includes dark vanilla, aromatic herbs, incense, woods and floral accords; Artissima is sold as Eau de Parfum, while the current Hybris collection is Extrait de Parfum. The brand says its perfumes use a high concentration of natural raw materials and contain no water; these are brand claims rather than independently verified certification claims.

Arte Profumi sits in Italian niche perfumery. Its identity centres on perfume as an expressive medium, with fragrances intended to evoke ideas and memories and to be combined into personal blends.
