Gianfranco: “When I decided to open Tatler, I didn’t say
anything to anyone. I didn’t ask for advises. I didn’t want them. You know,
people are generous with advises and some of them are actually punctual and
right … so inevitably you start thinking about them and … The think is that I
wanted to make my own mistakes and to do exactly what I wanted to do. A place where
to meet new people and old friends, a place to share. Fragrances work just as
trait d’union to link all my interests, and this is probably why I chose them,
because they can go well with anything, art, people, books…”
Gianfranco: “All sort of people come to Tatler. Business man
as well as young people who are still studying or have just got a job (or lost
it). We talk, about life, about the current situation in Italy, about ideas.
Someone asks me for advises. What I personally think is that we should always
try to fly high, to have strong ideas that guide us and to keep following them.
And be honest with ourselves even when things are difficult to admit.”
