    Additional information

    Founded in 1221 in Florence, Santa Maria Novella is the oldest artisanal perfumery and pharmacy in the world. Originating in a Dominican convent, the house has been crafting balms, ointments, and remedies from medicinal plants since its inception. Its ancestral expertise has been passed down to the present day, blending tradition and excellence. Renowned for its iconic perfumes, candles, and preparations, it embodies Florentine elegance. Santa Maria Novella offers a unique sensory experience, rooted in eight centuries of history.

    Splinters of light cast in wax.
    Acqua della Regina, Santa Maria Novella's hesperidic tribute to Catherine de' Medici.

    Lemon, bitter orange, and bergamot open with a bright and luminous burst. Neroli, petitgrain, and lavender immediately soften this freshness, before white musk and resins close the accord with a powdery and melting sweetness.

    Hand-poured and embedded with orange petals, these wax tablets are placed near linens without ever touching them, like a discreet jewel slipped between stacks of sheets. A noble, hesperidic breath, inherited from the Florentine Renaissance, then lingers in the wardrobe.

    It is neither a fruit, nor a garden, nor smoke, nor a bouquet, but a solidified fragment of light — a wax that perfumes without ever consuming itself.
