Smell is one of the senses we mostly use in our relationships with surrounding world: smell (together with sight) is the first and most immediate perception we have every time we come into contact with a person or an environment. We propose an itinerary among historical gardens, botanical gardens, shops of master perfumers, to discover both natural and artificial perfumes, essences and smells that in every situation guide our vision of the world and of ourselves.
