Today I welcome Lisa Bonfatti, who works for the perfumery and niche perfume distributor Campomarzio70 in Rome, Italy (who represents Vero Kern for instance).
Lisa is a perfumista herself and I’m sure I am not the only one who is a bit envious about her job. She gets to earn money by doing what she is passionate about. Who doesn’t dream about that?
Let’s see how Lisa answered my questonnaire…
A good day starts with… a coffee and a kiss.
I’d never leave the house without… perfume!
I always feel good when… heart and mind agree with each other!
The next thing I want to buy is… perfumes, what else!
The place I always come back to is… Germany, my second home, and the French atlantic coast.
My personal style is… personal! A bit of this, a bit of that, a look to the past, another to the future. Almost far from the present!
My favorite perfume… I just can’t answer that! There are too many. So I will say… the next one!
When I travel I always … get frustrated because I have to choose among too many perfumes I would like to take with me.
To relax I need… home, silence and my dog.
When I have a bad day… I try to breathe, listen to music, indulge in melancholy and squeeze my dog!
I like to gift people with… books.
I find my inspiration… in unexpected moments.
Something I would never want to miss… is the ocean.
My last mistake was… Mistake? What’s a mistake? ( 😉 )
In my fridge there is always… butter and wine.
On my nightstand I keep… books and my cell phone.
The perfect weekend starts with… a cozy lie in and delicious breakfast in bed with music and love.
My role model is… it would be good if it were me!
Something I always want to be asked in questionnaires like this is… What would you like to be asked in a questionnaire like this? 🙂
I could do with Lisa’s ideal start into the weekend as well, I must say.
Thank you for being a good sport and agreeing to do this, Lisa!

I would love to work at Campomarzio70!
O me too! .)
You can tell by her replies and her beaming smile that Lisa is an optimist and, no doubt, very good at her job. I especially love her replies to “My last mistake was…” and “My role model is…”.
I like these answers too, I wish I was that positive!
Fun answers. Especially liked her favourite perfume being the next one!
Ha, yes, that is a great answer and so true for us fumies.
I’ve always thought of Lisa as someone totally proactive and no-nonsense.
Now I think her answers confirm my intuition.
Thank you for this lovely Q&A, dear Birgit.

Thank you for reading, dear Caro! I assume you’ve met Lisa in person in Milan or Firenze?
I have never met her in person! It’s only through our correspondence that I have this impression.
🙂
Germany is my second home too! I so agree about the ocean being something you would miss. Even if you live in a landlocked part of the country, it’s nice to know it is there. 😉 Lisa sounds very jolly and fun to be around – and looks it in the photo too.
Having grown up and still living in a landlocked country, I’ve always had a bit of a fraught relationship with the ocean. It’s very foreign to me and remains mysterious and slightly dangerous.
She’s great. Totally.
Good to hear that, Val.
She sounds really lovely. Of course I now want to know which part of Germany she refers to…
and I loved “The Next One” as an answer.
She sounds really charming person! I really love her answer to “My last mistake was…”. There’s no mistake, only experience. 🙂
So true!
Pretty much a piece of heaven in Rome! 🙂
Glad you were able to visit! It must have been lovely!
