Luck is blind, but bad luck can see very well. For this reason, the question usually asked of those who are having a bad time is “Ma teniss' l'uocchie 'ncuoll?”, which literally means “do you have (malicious) eyes on you?”. Hence, precisely, the origin of the word "Evil Eye", which generally refers to the eyes of those who aim their evil gaze at us, leaving all their negative aura on us. Fortunately, however, there is a remedy for this "jinx": since the dawn of time, countless rituals have been handed down from generation to generation to remove the evil eye and the chosen ones who receive this gift perceive the malaise of these bad eyes even if only being in our presence (they yawn, have headaches, sneeze non-stop…).
In some cases, the only one who can destroy this bad luck is "'A fattucchier", who is usually an old woman who lives in the building of a friend (who himself in the past found himself in difficulty). With her rites and her incomprehensible phrases, which seem to come from ancient texts written in unknown languages, she manages to free you from the negative that she haunts you.
The main notes of the fragrance are truly linked to anti-hex rituals, as tradition has it.
