Ever since the Middle Ages, tea and precious spices have reached Venice from the Far East. They would be transported first to Suez and from there by trading caravans to Alexandria, where they would be loaded onto Venetian vessels to be sold in the city as rare and precious goods. The perfumes created in Venice were among the most desirable and sought after in the world. The MONOTHEME range of fragrances draws inspiration from this ancient tradition and aims to perpetuate it by creating unique perfumes obtained from carefully selected flowers, plants and spices, each with its own specific characteristics.
The four Eau de Toilette for women in the new TEA LEAVES range are a further testimony of this time-honoured passion for creative perfume-making. The aromas of selected teas, expertly blended with hints of precious spices, give birth to ‘monothematic’ fragrances based on the sensual secrets of oriental beauty. They can be worn in different moments or different moods to enhance the expression of one’s personality and evoke feelings of physical and spiritual wellbeing.
