Archetipo surrounds you in absolute silence. Archetipo was always here, before us, before all human thought. With Archetipo we can experience an echo of primordial memory, losing ourselves in a time without time, re-discovering olfactive consciousness. Archetypes of odour to define an archetypical scent." "Knots and roots, nest and streets.. loops of time without time. The unique twisted cap design represents order from chaos, tangles of protection, individually hand-made by Italian artist Mauro Carrazza."
