Description+

I leave what remains... Reliquia derives from the Latin verb relinquo, which means "I leave". In Latin reliquiae and in Greek λείψανα, it generally refers to "what remains", particularly of the human body or part of it. In the Christian context, this term identifies a part of the body or an object belonging to Christ, the Madonna, or the mortal remains of saints and martyrs, as well as objects that have been in contact with their person.

The new fragrance by Filippo Sorcinelli, after the tribute to Mario Giacomelli with "I have no hands to caress my face", returns to Senigallia to celebrate an extraordinary place, rich in history and works of art: the Church of the Cross. This oratory, dating back to 1608, was erected by the will of the Confraternity of the Sacrament and the Cross, still active today. Sorcinelli himself is part of it with precise tasks as organist and artistic director.

RELIQVIA tells of walls covered in gilded wood, finely decorated with carvings and reliefs, and of incensed steps towards the large main altar, like a golden embroidery, where the statue of the dead Christ, a 17th-century wooden work, is kept, visible only once a year. It also pays homage to Federico Barocci's altarpiece, The Transport of Christ to the Sepulcher, one of the painter's most beautiful works, executed in 1582, with a frame designed by the same.

RELIQVIA is therefore a place to evoke memory, to remember the time that passes and becomes solemn and authentic gold, a message of corruptibility and incorruptibility.

RELIQVIA is the concrete trace, the last trace, to describe a superior, different, and prodigious existence. It is the always-closed wardrobe, precious custodian of sacred men, reminding us how precious time is and risks vanishing without leaving a clear mark. RELIQVIA represents the nail of the Passion, layered incense and torbato from the solemn and sacred years. There is no sacredness without recognizing the sacred in men, exalted in perfect rites. RELIQVIA is the perfect space of the sacred. Touching relics, touching something that has been in contact with them is a grace and a guarantee. For this reason, the Romans tore the veils that wrapped the saintly martyrs and the bodies of the popes. In the presence of relics, the mentally ill are healed, the possessed and the obsessed are freed, the blind begin to see and the lame walk again.
