About Laurent Marrone
Laurent Marrone is a perfumer at Argeville with roots in the Var region of France and in Italy. He speaks of nature and family memories as part of his relationship with scent. One childhood memory highlighted by Argeville is roasting coffee with his grandfather, an experience that connects a familiar activity with a distinctive smell.
Career
Marrone's professional background covers several aspects of fragrance work. He has worked in the laboratory, quality control, regulatory affairs and analysis. These roles gave him experience beyond the act of composing a formula, including the characteristics of materials and the conditions a finished product must meet. Argeville presents this range of experience as a significant part of his route into perfumery.
Creative Style & Philosophy
Maison Matine's introduction to Marrone emphasizes his interest in the sensuality and elegance of flowers. His credited portfolio also includes compositions built around woods, spices and tea. The combination of these interests and his technical background offers a useful way to approach his work: attention to a sensory impression is accompanied by practical knowledge of the materials used to express it. His published credits span more than one fragrance house.
