There, his career path evolved by dint of his close working relationships with the greatest Masters. Since moving to IFF Paris, his objective has been to complete the training in order to be an integral part of the creative force that makes IFF the world-renowned company it is.

In addition to his professional work, Cristiano has been active in supporting the Osmotheque. In this capacity, he participates in many of their public events by presenting historical fragrances and by sharing the archetypes and milestones of the fragrance universe.
