The Merchant of Venice fragrances take up the ancient Venetian Perfume Art, told inside the Museo del Profumo of Palazzo Mocenigo based in the heart of Venice. The section dedicated to Perfume develops through a path of six exhibition rooms. Starting from the presentation of cosmetic history, particularly focused on the role of Venice, it presents original instruments, historical artifacts, texts, precious documents and an extraordinary collection of perfume bottles, real jewels of ancient craftsmanship. Among these rooms the history of Venetian perfumery, its origins and its development is revealed, with particular attention to the role of the merchants of the city and to the precious raw materials that they transported from the East to the whole West.
