EVOCATIONS

This perfume is inspired by the story of Ali Baba and the 40 thieves.

Ali Baba lived in a poor house and his only wealth was owning 3 donkeys.

One day, while he was climbing the hill to reach the top of Mount Somma, he heard a dull noise approaching. He feared that it was a gang of galloping thieves and hid by climbing a tree branch to remain hidden (there were 40 thieves).

The gang leader shouted: "Open sesame!" and, as soon as he said these words, a rock turned on itself and moved.

Ali Baba was incredulous and intrigued, and as soon as everyone left this strange place and then walked away, he came down from the tree, spoke the words and began to slowly descend.

There were chests overflowing with coins and blinding golden stones, but he stopped at thousands of Neapolitan slimes to dip in rum that were in a corner. The smell was so strong that his mouth watered and he immediately began to eat.

He thought of his people, of those who did not have wealth like him and, without hesitation, he took a couple of sacks brought from home to fill them with firewood and began to put dozens and dozens of those magnificent sweets with an irresistible smell in them.

On the way home, he only had one thought (his wife and his people). When he arrived at the place, he began to whistle loudly and open the bags, and suddenly a crowd gathered around him. Men, women, children and his wife, everyone was happy.
