Also credited as Minseo Ha, she signs every Villa Erbatium box as \"CEO and representative perfumer\", and Fragrantica names her as the nose who worked on the brand's fragrances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBackground\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShe studied in Italy, and has described being struck there by artisans who devoted themselves to a single craft. That experience runs through the house: its name joins the Italian words for a cultural space and for herbs with a Korean word for sprouting, several perfumes carry Italian names such as Allegria and Bambini Soap, and the Seoul atelier in Samcheong-dong is styled as an alchemist's laboratory under the motto \"Perfume, on the border between Science and Art\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSignature style\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHer fragrances start from a scene instead of a list of ingredients: hotel bedding in Hotel Cotton, a whiskey bar in Fig Whiskey, the Glencoe valley in Mossy Glen, a bowl of Korean rice wine in Rice Makgeolli. The compositions are usually soft and close to the skin, built on musk, cotton-like and powdery notes, tea, woods and restrained fruit, and almost all are made to be worn by anyone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eNotable work\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShe created Scent of Seoul as the official fragrance of the Seoul Metropolitan Government, Dracula for the Korean staging of the musical, and Allegria for Minhyuk of MONSTA X.
