The art of perfumery is nothing new. Archaeologists believe that humans have been making perfume since the beginning of time, with findings dating back more than 3 000 years!

Tablets discovered in Mesopotamia depict her making her famous fragrant concoctions all the way back in 1 200 BC. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perfumes have always played an integral role in human history and have been used in everything from ceremonies to religious rituals\u2026even to signify status and nobility.

The ancient Persians were just as captivated by the art of perfumery as the Egyptians, and wrote their own chapter in fragrance history by creating the first non-oil-based perfumes. The Greeks and the Romans developed the art further by meticulously documenting each step of the process, making it possible to recreate Greco-Roman perfumes today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
