Silenus is a character from Greek mythology and corresponds to the old rustic god of winemaking and drunkenness. Looking like a bald, corpulent and hairy old man, he was often depicted with animalistic attributes. He despised earthly goods, had the gifts of extraordinary wisdom and divination. In the gardens and citrus groves of Pompeii, Silenus wanders, singing. With a light step and a biting smile, he moves the leaves of the orange trees. The delicate flowers fall and exude fresh green notes. They are the places of "otium" and meditation, where the old Silenus, drunk, expresses with his music and his songs the amber notes of his ancient travels in the Mediterranean, echoing the eastern lands through Sichuan pepper and ylang ylang in a nostalgic marine accord. The myth feeds on nature and nature keeps the myth, in the woods, through the scent of flowers and fruits. The Silenus is a wise man, contemptuous of earthly goods, considered a seer who reveals the future only if forced. From his stories appear beached woods covered with algae and brackish water in the morning. Fantastic life stories made of sounds, smells and flavors of carefree wine that inspire a persistent fragrance from the bottoms of precious woods and the joy of cedar wood.
