Magdalena Giacomelli

My parent’s home has every wall covered in old wooden libraries with the most precious old books, and to nowadays, this is my most intense and important scent memory.

A mix of papery sharpness with ebony and walnut wooden furniture, and the slightly humid and powdery dustiness of the old books always reminds me of my childhood, my parents’ incredible erudition and their love for culture and education. All my reading experiences are heavily influenced by books individual smell, and when in need of comfort, ink and paper are the first olfactory reassurance I reach out for. Funnily enough, I am constantly on a quest for amplifying my collection of literature-inspired and papery fragrances!

Don’t judge me but Bodyshop Fuzzy Peach was so influential when I was in school. If you didn’t smell of it you weren’t in the cool gang! Anything peachy now makes me smile.

“Chance eau Fraiche by Chanel – my fav scent! Started wearing it June time so reminds of Summer, drinking Pimms in the sun BBQ with friends – I love it!”

Going on holiday aged 17 to Florida for the first time away from my parents for 2 weeks, Lancôme Miracle was what I wore everyday. One day, a few years back, I smelt it again and it took me back all those years to my fun holiday – it was the first time a smell had taken me back.

My most vibrant scent memory is that of my Grandmother, I remember the warm heady and enveloping smell of her doused in YSL Opium! This classy smell went perfectly with her jewellery and peep toe heels.
