First introduced in 1907, Pompeia is one of L.T. Piver’s most enduring and celebrated fragrances—a timeless floral-chypre inspired by the ancient Roman city of Pompeii. Drawing from the mythology, artistry, and prized exports of the region—olive oil, rose, and iris—this scent captures a sense of classical beauty, quiet sensuality, and old-world refinement.

The fragrance opens with a fresh, luminous blend of citrus, aromatic herbs, and aldehydes, creating a bright and elegant introduction. At its heart, a rich bouquet of florals unfolds—lush, romantic, and delicately intoxicating. The base is deep and complex, grounded in mosses, woods, leather, and amber, giving Pompeia its unmistakable depth and longevity.
