Andrea's story

The story

Before co-founding Moresque in 2015 with Cindy Guillaume — a fellow enthusiast of oriental fragrance he met while at CFF SpA — he built experience across the trade at CFF. At Moresque, where Guillaume serves as CEO and Casotti composes the perfumes, he explores the Moorish style, an aesthetic largely unrepresented in European perfumery, blending it with Italian and French influences. His creations for the house include Contessa, Seta, Diadema, Tamima, and Emiro, and he has also composed for The House of Oud and Creative Flavours & Fragrances, including Keep Glazed, Empathy, and Wonderly.
