Celebration of the journey of life
The Greek poet Kavafis in his poem Ithaca writes:
“When you set out for Ithaca
you must hope that the road is long,
fertile in adventures and experiences.”
A poet marginalized because he was accused of homosexuality, who in solitude began to think about the meaning of life, or rather, about the journey we take to find its meaning.
An "Ithaca" that we all must have, with the hope of a journey as long and rich as possible, because the truly important thing is the journey we take to get to the very meaning of everything.
And this is a journey that opens with the davana, which gives us a sense of depth and emotion (the one you feel before a departure), and then brings out marine and woody accents (very elegant and delicate), to celebrate that very ship that took one of the greatest protagonists in history on a rich and profound journey: Ulysses.
A really well crafted marine, not loud but magnetic at the same time.
