PYXIS "The Lost Fragrance of Pompeii"
Dwell in the mysterious fragrant elixir, created for Aphrodite, the goddess of Love, and lost to the fierce volcano that destroyed Pompeii.
Reconstruction from materials found, derived from floral, herbal and spice spores found in the garden of a perfumer, believed to be called Sperato, at Pompeii. These, along with substances garnered from the four corners of Empire, re-created Pyxis. A pixie fresco on the wall at the House of the Vetii in Pompeii gave the fragrance its name.

"The Lost Fragrance of Pompeii", a Mediterranean melange of citrus, fruity herbal head notes softened with a rose-jasmine accord embedded with powdery, sensual notes of incense varieties intermingling with a blend of woody notes. A combination of flowers and fruits from his garden, bathed in the warm soil of his native Campania, and the spoils of Empire. Sperato’s love potion based on Venus’ gift to Eros.
