This perfume is inspired by a rare surviving fragment of the writings of Metrodora, a pioneering female physician from 2nd century Alexandria, then part of the Roman Empire.
In Fragment No. 49 she offers a recipe for a body perfume. We’ve interpreted it as a fragrant oil, designed for use after bathing or in massage.
Immerse yourself in a sensual blend of rose, myrrh, and iris. An aromatic echo from the ancient world!
Ingredients: Olive oil, Jojoba oil, Myrrh essential oil. Rose essential oil, Fragrance. External use only.
