From the "Book of Secrets of the Ars Mirabile Profumatoria" by the Most Wise Magistra Caterina De' Medici
"When my husband, Henry II, King of France, died prematurely, I found myself de facto having to govern France. I had to make many decisions that influenced the existence of millions of people. By many I was defined as evil and murderous, falsely accused of massacre of the Huguenots. I often felt that my strength could not bear all this blood, pain and responsibility. I needed to find relief, a relief valve for all the anguish that oppressed me. Once again, my personal perfumer my good Renato, came to my aid and created a dreamlike essence for me, which allowed me to forget and overcome the hardships, pains and responsibilities of my kingdom, giving me incredible moments of peace and serenity, leading me into a true Oblivion of the Senses ."

Ars Mirabile
Over the centuries the activity of creating perfumes became increasingly complex, transforming into a truly marvelous art, an Ars Mirabile Profumatoria, until Caterina De' Medici linked her name to it imperishably over the centuries, as its creator, inspirer and patron, raising it to sublime levels. The Ars Mirabile fragrances are inspired by Caterina's life and the secrets of this art that she cultivated and guarded for years.
