Our Inspiration
Stories in Every Scent
Drawing from our travels and the tales echoed across history, we create fragrances designed to awaken the memories within us.
Wanderlust, a never-ending journey to self-discovery and the pursuit of beauty drives us.
First Generation
Guglielmo Terenzi founded a candle company dedicated to the religious and devotional world. Together with Bigia, whose support and care nurtured both the household and the business, he built a legacy rooted in craftsmanship, devotion, and purpose.
Second Generation
Gugliemo passed his passion to his son Evelino, teaching him the art of olfactory harmony. A visionary deeply attuned to nature, Evelino transformed the family workshop into a house of wonders — creating natural candles that united well-being with the emotion of perfume. Even today, his spirit lingers within its walls.
Third Generation
Evelino’s legacy lives on in his children, Tiziana and Paolo, who share a passion for the sea, creativity, and discovery. Guided by the wisdom of generations, they continue to craft wonders from natural, high-quality materials, where every creation reflects the family’s devotion to excellence.
Co-Founder and The Nose
Paolo Terenzi
“Perfume is the most intimate expression of our personality and soul, which is why I like to change fragrance depending on the day, my mood, or what I’m about to do. I wear almost all of them, choosing the one that best captures and enhances the spirit of the moment. To me, every perfume I create is like a child. I love them all with the same intensity, even though each one has its own unique character and calls for a different kind of love.”
Co-Founder and Creative Director
Tiziana Terenzi
"Atlantide is my favorite, because I’m deeply drawn to tuberose. It has that irresistible duality I love, creamy and luminous, yet bold and magnetic. It makes me feel the waves of a powerful universal energy vibrating through me: a radiant, confident presence which is elegant, sensual, and unforgettable.”
