PETRICOR

At Petricor We Cultivate Stones Because It’s What We’ve Been Taught To Do For Generations. A Long Lasting Tradition Of
Preserving What Will Not Be Immediately Consumed, To Conserve It And Eventually Transform It.

In english “petrihcor“ was coined in 1964 by Australian scientists: Bear and Thomas. The word comes from Ancient Greek pétra ‘rock’ and ichór ‘ethereal fluid’, blood of the gods.
The scent is as wonderful as it is undescribable, it can best be explained through poetry.
The scent varies depending on which type of soil is wet by the rain.
Each of us has a specific memory of having experienced that scent.
My experience with it brings my soul a strong feeling of belonging, one that talks about my land, my Liguria.
