description
The Officina Profumo- Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella massage candle is a genuine beauty treatment with extremely pure, emollient plant oils. It lights like any other candle, but you have to wait for the wax to start melting. The inner part of the wick is 100% organic, made from pure cotton and cellulose. As it undergoes no chemical treatment, it retains its original raw heat and offers excellent burning quality with a spicy Oriental scent. The melting point is at body temperature, so there's no danger of burning. Its attractive porcelain pot, stamped in pure gold, is reminiscent of ancient pharmacy mortars and was designed especially for the Officina Profumo- Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella by architect Filippo Burresi.

Santa Maria Novella

Born in 1221, the Officina Profumo-Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella is considered the oldest pharmacy in the world. Founded by Dominican friars, its history began when they had access to Santa Maria Inter Vineas, a small church outside Florence. There they cultivated herbs and plants in its garden to make medicines, ointments and balms. In 1334, Santa Maria Novella became known for treating a wealthy merchant from one of the most powerful families in Florence. Today the house is known worldwide for its perfumes, candles and "traditional preparations".
