En étudiant les marques de parfums de niche, L'Officiel Monaco a rencontré le parfumeur Laurent Mazzone, qui rompt avec les stéréotypes en créant des fragrances uniques.

Laurent Mazzone’s journey in the heart of the French Alps began with an innate fascination for aromas. As he transitioned from a fashion entrepreneur to a perfume creator, his evolution led him to establish a unique “Parfumerie”, crafting niche perfumes and candles that resonate with his olfactory passion.
