Inspired by the Black Stone talisman given by the court astrologer to Caterina de Medici, this perfume is reminiscent of the spices used by alchemists at that time. It is the scent of discovery, capable of keeping the fire alive in each of us. It gives off oriental atmospheres and is designed to match the Il Letterato candle holder in the Pure White variant. A symbol of wisdom, Il Letterato (The Scholar) is a contemplator of the design of life, a keen observer and skillful storyteller of human entanglements. Compagnia Di Caterina is a home fragrances collection that expresses the link between the Manifattura's classic art and contemporary design. It stems from the creative flair of Luca Nichetto, who creates an authentic porcelain line in which the statuesque faces of Caterina De' Medici's court are the protagonists and are accompanied by five unprecedented fragrances that blend harmoniously into any environment.
