The fragrance is inspired by the wooden drawers in the sacristy of the Basilica of Santa Rita da Cascia.
"Hail, Rita, vessel of love, bride of Christ, born of the thorns of the Savior, beautiful as a rose."
This phrase, carved into the central beam of the basilica's façade, greets every visitor and sets the tone for a place steeped in devotion and miraculous tenderness.
The scent is an olfactory remembrance of the saint in January 1457, when, gravely ill in her monastic cell in Cascia, Saint Rita asked her cousin to bring her a rose from her native Roccaporena. According to legend, God granted her wish — and the cousin found a rose in full bloom, growing through the snow.
This fragrance is a tribute to that moment: a miracle of warmth in winter, faith in fragility, and the scent of a rose that defies the season. It is the perfume of devotion, thorns, and grace.
