テラコッタポプリポット

I bought this on line a few weeks ago and was very disappointing with the lack of smell. Until I realised you have to cut the twines off and dig out the plastic bag inside so to empty it in the jar and release the amazing fragrance. Don’t know why it did not come with a little instruction. But the result is fantastic.

A lovely souvenir from one of the highlights of a trip to Florence. Setting it up was a bit confusing at first since the binding twine on the jar was so nice and I hated to cut it. The toxicity warnings caused me to wear gloves when transferring the freed packaged contents into the jar.

I was told at Santa Maria Novella how to make this last a year but I forget!
