"Perfumes do Al- Andalus – fragmentos históricos e culturais do Garb Andalusino", is another extraordinary work by author Dr Renato Proença dos Santos, which helps the reader to discover a whole host of illustrious natural figures from the geographical area that is now Portugal, as well as part of their legacy, not to mention, of course, the rich collection of Arabic etymology that is part of our language. The author takes us through the various historical periods of the Iberian Peninsula, which materialised with the indigenous values and elements of the Roman and Visigoth civilisations, the elements left by the Byzantine Empire with its Greco-Roman heritage, the millenary knowledge of Persia, the North African ethnic variety and the ethnic variety of the Arab conquest.
