Palazzo Falson
Scent Bottles - From Ceremony to Seduction was the third in a series of exhibitions organised by Palazzo Falson. Treasured as a rare and precious substance, scent has played a significant role in ritual and religion, myth and medicine, splendour and seduction for some 4000 years. The exhibition showcased the bottles created to contain the scents of the centuries, tracing their history from their early origins up to recent years. Over 250 scent bottles were brought together from Palazzo Falson's permanent collection, as well as other private and museum collections.
Exhibition Curator - Joseph Galea Naudi
