Reliqvia 100 ml Perfume Extract Filippo Sorcinelli

Reliqvia by Filippo Sorcinelli is a Woody and Smoky Perfume Extract for men and women.

Reliqvia draws inspiration from the term "relic," meaning "I leave" in Latin. In the Christian context, it refers to parts of Christ's body, objects belonging to Christ or His mother, and mortal remains of recognized martyrs or saints. Sorcinelli's tribute explores the Church of the Cross in Senigallia, a Baroque masterpiece housing important relics. The fragrance encapsulates the golden wood-clad walls, incensed steps toward the high altar, and the seventeenth-century statue of the dead Christ. "RELIQVIA" symbolizes a sacred space, recalling time's preciousness, and serves as a concrete trace of a prodigious existence. The fragrance embodies the nail of Passion, layered with incense and torbato, representing solemn and sacred years. Touching relics is considered a grace and guarantee, echoing ancient Roman practices and the healing power attributed to them.
