This bottle of perfume is from Stockholm based perfume studio Stora Skuggan. Inspired by Silphium, a plant from Cyrene, present day Libya and widely renowned as a spice, medicinal herb and perfume ingredient throughout the empires of the classical antiquity. Praised by Greek philosophers and Roman emperors alike, this perfume rendition of the plant was created using surviving relatives of Silphium.

"Even if one just tastes it, at once arouses a humour throughout the body and has a very healthy aroma” - Pedanius Dioscorides, around year 70 BC.
