The legend tells of a traveler who was captured by a desert spirit. The spirit made him una proposal: in exchange for his life and freedom, the traveler would have to deliver the entire Arabia into the palm of his hand. That night, after having a dream, the traveler created essences of bergamot, patchouli, labdanum, and amber, which he enclosed in his flask with a gold cap. He then carefully placed the object in una box and gave it to the spirit, who thus obtained what he had asked for: the entire Arabia in his palm.
