TRAVELING TO

Taormina, a marvellous pearl of Sicily, where the charm of history meets unspoilt nature and its wild coastline is teeming with thorny but very generous plants: prickly pears. Its widespread diffusion and historically wide use in Sicilian regional cuisine have led the Ministry of Agriculture to recognise the prickly pear as a typical product of this territory. Renowned for its properties, the prickly pear is an expression of the warmth, joie de vivre and beauty of this wonderful Italian land. From Taormina you can admire the majestic "A' Muntagna", Mount Etna, whose prickly pears are a protected designation of origin product.

FICO D’INDIA BENEFITS

The prickly pear is a succulent plant similar to the cactus, probably introduced to the Mediterranean basin by Christopher Columbus. 

The prickly pear is renowned for its nourishing (rich in vitamins and mineral salts that promote renewal) and hygroscopic (able to capture and retain water molecules) properties. Its benefits are ideal in cases of frequent cleansing or exposure to dehydrating agents (sun, chlorine, salt, etc.). This deep moisturising action is emphasised by hyaluronic acid and silk proteins, which retain moisture and give the skin tone and elasticity.

PERFUME FEATURES

A perfume dedicated to those who thirst for sun, sea, colours and life! A strongly juicy trail enraptures the senses and quenches the thirst of the mind! A fruity cocktail of fig and orange mingle with peach, mango and cyclamen to surrender to the sweetness of coconut milk and the embrace of musk. An intoxicating fragrance reminiscent of the colours and scents of Sicily.
