Eau Parfum Natural Spray

“The Romans, who were the pupils of the Greeks in all the arts, carried the luxury with perfumes perhaps even farther.
In ancient Rome there was a very numerous guild of perfumers called unguentarii; they are said to have had a street to themselves in Capua. A Patrician Roman anointed himself three times daily with precious, sweet-scented oils which he personally took along into his bath in golden vessels of exquisite workmanship, so-called nartheciae. At the funeral of his wife Poppzea, Nero is said to have used as incense more odorous substances than could be produced in one year in Arabia, at that time the only reputed source of perfumes. This luxury went so far that during the games in the open amphitheatres the whole air was filled with sweet odors asccnding from numerous censers arranged in a circle. The apartments of well-to-do Romans always contained large and very valuable urns filled with dried blossoms, to keep the air permanently perfumed.”
