i Profumi di Firenze has renamed their latest fragrance release; Muschio Bello is now Muschio e Ambra. The formula remains unchanged:
A mystical blend of white flowers, aromatic orientals and spices of the East. This "Beautiful Musk" includes sensual notes of amber, incense and jasmine with a whisper of patchouli and coriander.

Wait, Muschio e Ambra doesn't have MUSK? I skip musk-containing perfumes because it's instant armpit-with-feet tucked into them for hours. But these notes are actually tempting.
So this is a century old formula, the same fragrance as a few hundred years ago? Not vintage but antique.
Would love to smell it.
Oh, I'd be very surprised if there was no musk. It's in the title, and anyway, almost everything has one form of musk or another.
Not sure why you'd think it was a century old formula?
Well I did some reading on their website and what I understood is that they recreate the old fragrances still with only the natural ingredients.
I think that is quite special.
Ah, gotcha. It is true that reportedly that is how the company started, but I don't think all of their scents are based on old recipes. And this one in particular seems unlikely to contain only natural ingredients.
