Inspirations

Like the luminescent skin of a reptile, fiery sunscales ripple across the surface of the Indian Ocean, slowly fading to gold and finally sapphire as the sun sinks and disappears. The sea expires, its gentle tide caressing the beach of an island paradise. Salty breath mingles with the narcotic aromas of ylang and frangipani in an intimate kiss, making the branches shiver. Something stirs—an eye swivels, a tail clutches a slender branch. Will the creature disappear among the leaves or flirt with a bold palette of colors? No one knows. The secrets hidden beneath the chameleon’s skin leave Madagascar in suspense.

Madagascar, home to half of the world’s chameleon species, holds the key to the zoologist’s chameleon. Like the kaleidoscope of hues swirling in the flesh of these exotic creatures, ylang dances with delicate frangipani on your skin in a melody of creamy florals, while aphrodisiac vanilla blends with salty, silky musks to envelop you in the island’s exotic, fruity atmosphere. Whether you want to shroud yourself in an air of mystery or openly display your true colors, Chameleon is yours.
The perfumer: Daniel Pescio

Cristiano Canali is an Italian perfumer whose career is marked by a quest for perfection and a passion for the art of perfumery. Born in Brazil, where he obtained a degree in marketing and advertising, he went to France in 1993 to pursue a Master's degree in Semiotics in Paris. However, his career took a turn when he specialized in Cinematography at an art school, before turning to the world of perfumery.

After training at ISIPCA, a prestigious school in Versailles, Cristiano immersed himself in the study of perfumes, raw materials and iconic creations such as "Lily of the Valley", "Shalimar" and "Diorissimo". Fascinated by the history of old perfumes, he acquired vintage fragrances to better understand the original compositions and the socio-political context of their time.

His creative approach is based on the search for balance and contrasts between natural and synthetic raw materials, creating unique perfume compositions that tell a story through each note. After his time at ISIPCA, Cristiano chose not to work for large perfume companies, preferring to remain independent. This is how he embarked on a career that saw him collaborate with renowned brands such as Natura Brasil, Dior, Chanel, Tom Ford, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Serge Lutens, Guerlain, Cartier, and many others before joining Frédéric Malle.

With his experience and passion, Cristiano founded his own company in 2010, where he creates perfumes for independent brands and private clients, while teaching and leading perfume workshops around the world. He is also a practitioner of Kōdō, the Japanese art of incense, which he studies with great rigor.

Among his notable creations, "Fleur Cannibale" stands out for its contrasting and audacious side, mixing abstract flowers from the Amazon, spices, sandalwood, vanilla, patchouli, and incense. His style is a blend of artistic research and mastery of raw materials, where each fragrance is an invitation to a sensory journey, a story told through the evolution and balance of scents.

Today, Cristiano Canali continues to inspire with his ability to combine tradition and modernity, his pursuit of excellence and his resolutely creative approach to perfumery.
