ARANCIA ROSSA - LABORATORIO OLFATTIVO

“If bergamot is elegant, lemon energetic, mandarin joyful, orange is sunny and tragic in its fate. The town of Ivrea, not far from Turin, commemorates each year in February its historic Carnival with a battle of oranges. In the past, Portugal's defeat by Spain in 1801 took the name of the War of the Oranges, because Prince Manuel Godoy y Álvarez de Faria sent baskets of fruit to his mistress the queen to celebrate the victory. The oranges' revenge was that they were long called Portugual in perfume making. As for Carmen, the tragic end of Bizet’s opera takes place in the Real Maestranza de Caballería de Séville, while outside the merchants’ chorus sings to the crowd pouring into the arena. Of all the stories, the one I prefer is the giving of oranges at Christmas, a message to say that the end of winter has been announced. The orange, a rebellious fruit the color of summer.” Jean-Claude Ellena
