THE VELENIUM
History
MEDUSA
Poison is insidious; it invades, transforms, clouds. It slowly envelops you, quickly captures you, unexpectedly, unpredictably.
Poison as a strong feeling that corrodes the soul; it torments and consumes.
Probably its original meaning is “love filter”. That is why poison is always linked to complicated stories and relationships, permeated with hatred, envy and jealousy.
Medusa is a story of Poison, spreading, igniting and igniting the darkest part of our hearts.
Medusa, beautiful and then monstrous.
Innocent, luminous and then beastly, dark.
Medusa, enchanting and damned.
In Greek mythology she is one of the three Gorgons, daughters of the sea gods Forco and Ceto.
Described as petrifying, repulsive, her head full of poisonous, living snakes.
A monster, but was she always one?
In appearance she was beautiful and also a desire filled with jealousy for many suitors,
but no part of her was more worthy of looks than her hair;
I have found those who claim to have seen them.
That the lord of the sea raped her in the temple of Minerva
is told: he turned around and, with his aegis, the immaculate face
the daughter of Jupiter concealed, and lest this should pass with impunity,
the hair of the Gorgon turned into vile serpents.
And even today, to terrify her enemies with holy terror,
holds on her shield the serpents to which she gave life.
(Ovid vv. 795-803)
Ovid highlights the real monsters; prevarication, power, evil.
Darkness did not dominate in Medusa, Poseidon and Athena unleashed it.
From that evil immediately arises the monster we have always known.
Medusa is an unexpected, insidious perfume, it manifests itself slowly, it is addictive.
For those who are unpredictable, with a beautiful but damned spirit, for those who accept and recognise the monsters that inhabit them, and sheds light on their innermost, darkest side.
Intense fragrance
MEDUSA
Medusa, beautiful, innocent and enchanting.
Medusa monstrous, beastly and damned.
A fragrance inspired by the legend of Medusa, the venom that pervaded her life, that of her serpents.
An intense fragrance, an inner journey, between our lights and shadows.
