In this paper we analyze in detail an ${S}_{3}$-symmetric three-Higgs-doublet model with a specific vacuum configuration. This analysis allows us to illustrate important features of models with several Higgs doublets, such as the possibility of having spontaneous $CP$ violation. We start with a real potential and pick a particularly interesting …
