The Roger&Gallet epic began in Italy, in the footsteps of a young Italian named Giovanni Paolo Feminis. The latter invented in 1693 a miraculous water, Aqua Mirabilis, a remedy based on 18 officinal plants grown in the Herb Garden of a convent in Florence. In friction or ablution, this medicinal water was reputed to cure many ailments.
Regenerating neroli, refreshing lavandin, anti-inflammatory lemongrass, antiseptic thyme... the miracle recipe has crossed centuries and borders all the way to Cologne where a certain Jean Marie Farina inherited it and patented it: Eau de Cologne was born.
