Lily of the valley eau de toilette - traditional icing

Description An elegant trail. Some have known it and remember it, all have praised it: this pretty flower announcing the beginnings of summer is particularly suitable for ladies of great elegance... A little history ? In mythology, it is said that the god Apollo created lily of the valley to provide his nine barefoot nymphs with a soft, fragrant carpet to walk on. The lucky sprig of lily of the valley has often been associated with the Madonna, the tears shed by the Virgin Mary at the foot of the cross are said to have given rise to the lily of the valley flowers in the shape of white bells. Christian legend also tells the story of Saint Leonard, a hermit who took refuge in the forest who had to fight against a dragon. Emerging victorious from the battle, it is said that the drops of blood he shed gave birth to lily of the valley plants. This legend partly explains the belief that lily of the valley brings good luck. The Celts already attributed lucky virtues to this plant: its flowering signified the return of spring and the abundance of nature. In the Middle Ages May was the month of weddings, called at that time "accordailles". The tradition was to hang a bouquet of lily of the valley on the door of the beloved, whose white flowers symbolized purity. During the Renaissance, in the French countryside, it was customary to treat yourself to lily of the valley to ward off the difficulties of winter. On May 1, 1560, while passing through one of his Duchies, King Charles IX was offered a sprig of lily of the valley. Pleasantly surprised, he decided to resume this tradition at court the following year by offering the ladies a sprig of lily of the valley as a good luck charm: the custom thus quickly acquired its letters of nobility. Glazing is an old and traditional manufacturing process where the action of cold allows the perfume to be fixed on superfine alcohol.
