Lince - Extrait De Parfum - Tiziana Terenzi

On a particularly dark and cold night in late winter, just before the start of spring, Paolo and Tiziana were in Palermo with their grandfather Guglielmo and the whole family. The city was preparing for the festivities of the Solstice festival, and everyone was filled with the hopeful excitement that comes before great events, full of expectations and trusting in the blessing of the new harvest, born of the hard work in the fields. Fortune, they said, was coming into their lives, and so the darkness was lit up with fires and the streets with flowers of hypnotic colors and scents. The sky was blacker than black, and a light mist hid the footsteps of the children as they ventured into the alleyways surrounded by Baroque palaces to see the bonfires burning, brightening the valley with towering tongues of flame. The crackling of these tall fires broke the almost unreal silence that had settled all around the city. Grandfather began pointing out a constellation suspended in the sky, one not always visible except on particularly dark nights. Even on these rare occasions, the beautiful and exceptionally rare stars that make it up appear only to truly expert and patient eyes that know how to wait and recognize them, just as happens when choosing an artistic perfume that reveals itself only to true connoisseurs with the knowledge and spirit to understand it! The heavens seemed like a black cloak enveloping and swallowing the entire Milky Way, but with skill Guglielmo began pointing out the glowing specks that at first seemed distant, but the longer you gazed at them, the more you could see, each more beautiful and mysterious than the last. Lynx is in fact famous for being a constellation rich in double and pulsating stars; like a beacon in the night, it sends signals to travelers and dreamers. Surrounded by this dark sky, the scents of the flowers lining the streets for the festival wafted richly and hypnotically, carrying the two children away on a dreamlike journey on the wings of the hippogriff that had lived right here in Sicily!
