1472—this date, the earliest in the Histoire de Parfums collection, is the
year of publication of the first edition of one of the most beautiful and influential
works of medieval poetry: la Divina Commedia—the Divine Comedy.
It is a long metaphor about good and evil, sin and virtue, faith
and unbelief – but more than anything else, it is an exploration, if not
an introspection, of the reality of salvation. Of life after death. With
1472, Histoires de Parfums rewrites the oldest story of mankind,
the story of good and evil, by transforming sin into a fragrance.
The dividing line between heaven and hell, between light and shadow, is indeed fine,
, and nowhere is it more obvious than in insatiability.
It only takes a spark of desire to throw the purest soul into the
nets of lust.
