People once believed the world was made up of 4 elements: earth, fire, air, and water.

Aristotle added a fifth element, the aether or ether, by which he meant the material that fills the rest of space,

It was described as ‘quinta essential’ ("fifth element".

‘Quinta essentia’ came to stand for anything so perfect that it seemed to surpass the limitations of the earth.

Today we generally use ‘quintessential’ rather freely to describe just about anything that represents the best of its kind.
