About Alberto Morillas

Born 1950. Alberto Morillas is a Spanish perfumer.

Alberto Morillas (born 1950) is a Spanish perfumer. He is a master perfumer at Swiss fragrance and flavor firm Firmenich, where his notable creations have included Calvin Klein CK One, Giorgio Armani Acqua di Giò and Marc Jacobs Daisy. He has an independent line called Mizensir.

Early life Morillas was born in 1950 in Seville, Spain inspired by a Vogue article about French perfumer Jean-Paul Guerlain. and has gone on to create nearly 7000 perfumes. In the mid-1990s, CK One had annual sales of about $90 million (USD) and in 2007 still sold about $30 million annually in the United States. In Perfumes: The Guide, Luca Turin gave CK One four of five stars, describing it as a "radiant citrus" that combines "soapy, fresh top notes" with heart and base notes simultaneously, creating a linear effect in which the scent sustains one "chord" rather than shapeshifting over the course of the day: "Time forever stands still at 8 a.m.: the frozen morning of a day full of promise." It is often cited as the first "unisex" fragrance

Other projects In 1997, Morillas and his wife Claudine began a line of scented candles called Mizensir, which grew to offer 80 different candles. Morillas expanded the brand to include 17 perfumes.

Awards Morillas won the Prix François Coty in 2003.
