Firenze 1221 Collection
Boxed set of 2
An absolute novelty of the Firenze 1221 Editions, Acqua della Regina wax tablets will make their way into drawers, wardrobes and linen with the royalty of an exquisite artifact, still cast and refined by hand today. With orange and lavender petals, they infuse an aroma of ancient vivacity and wisdom, recalling the gift that Caterina brought to the Prince of Valois.
The box contains two hand-made scented wax tablets, inspired by the Acqua della Regina Cologne fragrance and its notes of citrus fruits, neroli and musk.
Acqua de la Regina is the oldest fragrance in the collection. It is the perfume that Caterina de’ Medici commissioned the Dominican monks to create in 1533, and she took it with her to France when she married Enrico di Valois. For this reason this fragrance is identified as a perfume rather than with a cologne. It is a bouquet of fresh citrus notes with a base of Calabrian bergamot. The mould for the bottle is reminiscent of the glass bottles Officina has used over the last two centuries of its history, and it is used for all the other Santa Maria Novella colognes which have been created subsequently.
Scent Profile – Bergamot, Lemon, Tangerine, Neroli, Petitgrain, Lavender, Clove, Rosemary, Benzoin
Santa Maria Novella began as a herbal apothecary range of medicinal balms and tinctures more than 800 years ago and has a rich, spiritual history. The products were originally created by an order of Italian Dominican monks, who used the herbs and flowers found in the gardens of their monastery just outside Florence to treat the skin ailments of patients in their infirmary. Today the range is loved by supermodels and celebrities alike and many of the formulations remain unchanged since the day they were created. This collection of divine skincare formulations and delicate fragrances has stood the test of time.
