From Moda Operandi
Considered the oldest pharmacy in the world; Officina Profumo-Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella was founded in 1221 as a Dominican friars convent when the friars were granted the use of Santa Maria Inter Vineas (Holy Mary Among the Vines) — a small church just outside the city walls where they cultivated a botanical garden of herbs and plants to craft medicines; ointments and balms.The 'Melograno' fragrance is a bouquet of sweet floral oriental notes. It opens with fresh spicy and citrus notes; with a base of patchouli; labdanum; and musk blended with deep notes of oakmoss.
