i Profumi di Firenze Il Sale e le Dune EDP

i Profumi di Firenze Il Sale e le Dune is in the aromatic aquatic category and is considered unisex. 

Just steps away from the Piazza della Signoria in Florence lies the tiny Spezierie Erboristerie Palazzao Vecchio which houses the incredible line of i Profumi di Firenze. This line is an all non-synthetic line inspired by the original formulas of the XVI century, commissioned to the Florentine cosmetic artisans by Caterina de Medici. They are all handmade.  Perfumer and chemist Dr. Giovanni di Massimo found these recipes on an original manuscript buried in the mud after the big flood in Florence in 1966.

The majority of these fragrances are not distributed in the United States and this is the only location in which to purchase them. Il Sale e le Dune is one of those fragrances. Dt. Di Massimo states: For Millennia camels laden with salt plates have been going the way that starts from the cold desert of Dancalia and then crosses the hot dunes of the Etiopian desert. I created this fragrance that first brings the salt and cold air and then suddenly gets the changing colors of the sand dunes : the pink, the  gold and the orange to announce the arrival of Salt, great resource for humanity.

Il Sale e le Dune features top notes of galbanum, eucalyptus, peach flowers and white flowers; middle notes of fig, wildberry, salted water and floral notes; and base notes of rose and rosewood. It is an eau de parfum, edp.
