Alberto Morillas and His Most Famous Perfumes

 

Born in Seville, Alberto Morillas is a perfumer whose early scent memories come from his parents’ garden blooming with orange blossom, carnation, and jasmine. He moved to Switzerland at age 11 and later studied art history at École des Beaux-Arts. A Vogue interview with Jean-Paul Guerlain inspired him, leading to his application to Firmenich in 1970. He’s been an essential part of their company ever since, earning the title of Master Perfumer. Alberto Morillas is the creator of  thousands of perfumes including many iconic designer and niche fragrances. He blends Mediterranean brightness, graceful florals and aquatics in innovative ways. Alberto Morillas is one of the most influential perfumers of all time with a Lifetime Achievement award from the Fragrance Foundation. He started Mizensir, his own  independent brand in 1999.
