As the magical time of the year comes around The Officina Profumo-Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella attempts to seduce us with variations of its classic products and scents, emanating from the Firenze 1221 edition. Celebrating their 800 years of activity is a variety of merchandise including, intricately designed home fragrances, beautiful handmade wax tabs encapsulating dried flowers to scent drawers, and a selection of soaps.  However, the undisputed standout is the hand-made terracotta pomegranate,  which, releases its pomegranate fragrance.

Refined and elegant, we hope to find them in our Christmas stockings.
