ANDREA CASOTTI

Andrea Casotti is an Italian perfumer whose journey began with a surprising duality: trained as a nuclear engineer at the Politecnico di Milano, he simultaneously nurtured a passion for art and sensory exploration. He views a fragrance laboratory as a space where “art and engineering have the opportunity to blend together.” This philosophy propelled him into the world of niche perfumery, where he channels analytical precision into creative expression, resulting in compositions that are technically exact yet emotionally evocative.

Casotti’s signature style is rooted in storytelling and contrast: bold raw materials like oud, myrrh or resin sit alongside luminous fruits or florals to craft sensory narratives of unexpected terrain. As founder of The House of Oud and as the perfumer behind many creations for Moresque, he explores themes of memory, travel and alchemy—each fragrance becomes a vivid moment preserved in scent. His unique blend of technical background and artistic vision gives his work a distinctive voice in the niche-fragrance world.
