ARANCIA ROSSA - LABORATORIO OLFATTIVO

“If bergamot is elegant, lemon energetic, tangerine joyful, orange is sunny and tragic in its destiny. The town of Ivrea, not far from Turin, commemorates its historic Carnival every year in February with a battle of oranges. In the past, the defeat of Portugal in 1801 by Spain took the name of the War of the Oranges, because Prince Manuel Godoy y Álvarez de Faria sent his mistress the Queen baskets of fruit to celebrate the victory. The revenge of oranges was that they were called Portugual for a long time in the making of perfumes. As for Carmen, the tragic end of Bizet*'s opera takes place in the Real Maestranza de Caballería in Seville, while outside the choir of merchants sings to the crowd rushing into the arena. Of all the stories, the one I like best is the offering of oranges at Christmas, a message to say that the end of winter is announced. Orange, a rebellious fruit, the color of summer.
