The magic of the“Pompeia”elixir has been around since 1907, the date at which this scent came into existence under the impetus of Jacques Rouche, then manager of the LT Piver Maison.
By baptising the fragrance with this name, this eternally curious man (notably of archaeology) wanted to allude to the famous ancient city of Mount Vesuvius imprisoned by ravines of lava in the year of 79 AD, and from which a main route was created in the 19th century. There is definitely an essence of the tragedy of Pompei in this fragrance, with its whispered notes, a pleasant sensation of chaos which clasps hold of you and never lets you go.
