Peccato Originale (“Original Sin”) is a line of perfumes founded by chemist Silvia Monti. Inspired by her work as a chemist and the customers she encountered every day, the Peccato Originale line covers a path bordering what might be called the “world of smells” and the proper “world of perfumes.” This olfactory groove is shared in large part with the scents of galenical [medicines prepared according to the formulae of ancient Roman physician Galen, or containing one or more organic ingredients as opposed to pure chemical substances] preparations. All fragrances in the line are intended for both men and women.
