Florentine craftsmanship has known how to focus on the tradition and the excellent features of the territory, also retaining – in addition to its high quality – the mark of history and people.

hat do Leonardo, Michelangelo, Botticelli and Donatello have in common? They were all born in Tuscany, a land of artists and artisans, of creative, clever people, with a marked tradition of manual skills; so it is no surprise that still today Tuscany is known and appreciated throughout the world forW its high-quality craftsmanship . Each province possesses treasures of inestimable value, created by “making virtue of necessity”, as they say, that is, using the raw materials offered by the territory: from gold to silver, from ceramics to silk, to paper, leather and even straw, also including perfumes and excellent quality foodstuffs such as wine, oil or meat. Florentine artisans, in particular, are a historical and productive reality that has its roots deep in the truest soul of the city. The history of Florence is in fact indissolubly linked to the history of its artisans: between the 12th and 13th centuries they began to form the guilds of arts and crafts, who brought their members from the same professional category together for the purposes of promotion, mutual aid and the pursuit of common interests. The birth of the guilds of arts and crafts, an extremely modern insight for the time, deserves most of the plaudits for the extraordinary cultural and economic development that enabled Florence to become one of the richest, most powerful cities in Europe in the Renaissance. Today, in an increasingly globalised world, the Florentines have succeeded in conserving their immense manufacturing heritage to the utmost. Though retaining hand-crafting working methods, they have in fact known how to adapt perfectly to fit the contemporary timescales, methods and aesthetics, opening themselves up to the use of innovative techniques. Some of them have chosen to remain within the dimensions of the workshop, often family-run, others have given rise to full-blown international companies while still maintaining their SHUTTERSTOCK.COM manufacturing vocation.

Creator of perfumes Lorenzo Villoresi, Florentine experimenter, autodidact and artist. A creator of perfumes of world renown and the inventor of a project for the diffusion of perfume culture with the foundation of an academy and a museum of perfume at his studio-palace in Florence. By Alessandra Avanzi
What is your first olfactory memory? There are so many of them… but they are associated with a house in the country a short distance from Florence. In particular, I remember the smell of a plant called “Olea fragrans” (Osmanthus fragrans). In this house in the country there was and still is a crazy flowering of this plant, during which there is a pervasive and penetrating perfume, characterised by honey-tinged, floral, fruity notes, with an “animal-like” undertone. I also remember the smell of the flowers of the bitter orange tree that are present in their hundreds in the garden of this house.
How did the idea of founding an academy of perfume come about? The Museo Villoresi and the Academy are the outcome of a lifetime devoted to the art of perfumery combined with a willingness to share the know-how of this art form. It affords a new approach to perfumes and an enhanced experience into their beauty, extraordinary variety and charm. There is a great interest in the world of perfume: amateurs who would like to become perfumers or enthusiasts who would like to have greater expertise. We began with awareness-creation and educational training lessons
