Heritage
A house, in its own words
Ingegneria del Profumo began in Italy in 2025, making it one of the most recent names in the supplied fragrance history. Its origins sit outside conventional perfumery. Co-founder Paolo Schiavone is described as an expert in composite materials, while the project was created through a collaboration with Dana. The engineering reference is literal rather than decorative, appearing in the name and in the Carbon family structure. Instead of presenting an inherited house history, the brand starts with a material-based creative framework and translates it into fragrance. Four releases formed the initial proposition in 2025: Carbon Blue, Street of Monaco; Carbon White, Interstellar; Carbon Black, Dark Knight; and Carbon Red, DRS. Cristian Cavagna is credited in a third-party brand profile as the perfumer behind these creations. Because the house is new and the available records are limited, there are no earlier milestones to trace. Its heritage is therefore a beginning rather than a chronology, one that places contemporary Italian niche perfumery beside knowledge of engineered materials. The central idea behind Ingegneria del Profumo is to treat fragrance as a field of design, not simply as a decorative accord. The name, which translates from Italian as engineering of perfume, makes that intention explicit. The Carbon range reinforces it through a system built around color, material associations, and named environments. Street of Monaco suggests the atmosphere of a place, Interstellar opens the frame to space, Dark Knight invokes a nocturnal fictional world, and DRS gives the red composition a compact mechanical reference. These titles encourage perfume to be read as a constructed atmosphere rather than a single-note idea. The project also connects the vocabulary of engineered composites with the expressive language of niche perfumery. That approach feels especially relevant in a young house with no inherited house style to preserve. Its identity comes from the framework itself, where successive colors can become chapters in a larger collection. The aim is recognizable within the research: a clear concept, a disciplined naming structure, and enough narrative space for individual fragrances to develop distinct identities.
