Farmacia SS. Annunziata represents one of Italy's oldest perfume traditions. This remarkable brand traces its roots back to 1561, when an apothecary opened in Florence near the Duomo. The first documented manager, Domenico di Vincenzo di Domenico Brunetti, laid the foundation for centuries of artisanal excellence.

The pharmacy evolved from its origins within a Benedictine monastery into a modern perfume and cosmetics house. In 1876, a ceramic insignia depicting the Annunciation was placed above the entrance, giving the shop its name "Farmacia all'insegna della SS. Annunziata." The official name became Farmacia SS. Annunziata in 1935.

Since 1970, the Azzerlini family has managed the company with passionate dedication. Elena Azzerlini, the current owner, presented a new brand identity in 2021 that skillfully bridges tradition and modernity. The philosophy "Tradition with an eye to the future" reflects in every fragrance creation.

Florence's rich history provides endless inspiration for the brand. Renaissance workshops and artisan guilds continue to influence fragrance compositions today. Each bottle design references old pharmacy bottles, telling the story of a city that has celebrated beauty and artistry for centuries. The brand's commitment to quality and handcrafted products makes it distinctive in the niche fragrance world.

The perfume heritage divides into two main lines: "Profumi Tradizionali" (Traditional Perfumes) and "Nuova Collezione" (New Collection). This structure reflects the brand's philosophy of combining historical recipes with modern techniques and innovation.

Anniversary stands as the brand's flagship, celebrating 460 years of history. This warm, spicy oriental blends cinnamon, tobacco, and vanilla into a tribute to Florentine craftsmanship. The sillage creates a lasting impression while the longevity ensures the fragrance develops beautifully throughout the day.

Whisky Nobile showcases the brand's innovative side. This unique composition of whisky and arabica coffee, enhanced with frankincense and leather, creates an unmistakable olfactory experience. The complexity and uniqueness make it a true hidden gem for lovers of unconventional fragrances.

Gourmand enthusiasts will appreciate Sweet Carousel, a tempting blend of almond and vanilla that evokes fairground atmosphere. Reunion Vanilla presents a refined vanilla interpretation with orchid and peach blossom.

The brand collaborates with talented perfumers including Luca Maffei, Carmen Grillini, and Arturetto Landi. These partnerships create intense soliflores - fragrances that explore a single note with exceptional depth. You can test these special creations as samples before committing to full-size bottles.
