INSPIRATION

In the magical atmosphere of the magnificent "Firenze dei de' Medici", a perfume with a strongly evocative name was born.

Florentine iris is again the protagonist of the fragrance, but in a deliciously feminine expression.

Caterina de 'Medici wisely wore perfumes on her gloves and body: in this way she avoided the odours of other people, who did not wash regularly in those days. This gesture of hers was invented by Renato Bianco (or, as he was called by the French: René le Florentin) her personal and trusted perfumer who followed at court to France after her marriage. In addition, he had invented different ways of wearing perfume especially for her: including the famous "perfumed pomegranate", a special spherical-shaped jewel to be worn around the neck or on the belt.
