An early morning excursion inspired Egisto Bertozzi, the perfumer and owner of Erbario Toscano, to create Zafferno Rosa, Pink Saffron,. Egisto visited saffron fields as women skillfully, reverently picked the flowers in the soft morning light. The women carefully separated the yellow threads from the crimson stigmas, gently filling their baskets with the fragrant, spicy flower. The scene so captivated Egisto that he wanted to capture the dreamy atmosphere in a fragrance, and notes of saffron, flower, and wood combine to evoke that nearly mythical scene.
