(01)The earliest documented recipe for Pot Pourri appears in a 1743 manuscript by Fra' Cosimo Bucelli: buds, blossoms, roots and leaves matured in terracotta jars. Bergamot, bitter orange and laurel open the composition; lavender, thyme, rosemary and clove form the heart; and cedarwood, patchouli and balsam of Peru form the base. It extends into preparations for the body and the home, part of the Firenze 1221 collection.
