## Description

Explore the realm of perfumes, smells, and aromatic incense to reveal the enduring allure of fragrance. Scents are linked with our most cherished memories--life without the ability to smell is unimaginable. Dive deep into the essentials of olfaction; open up the psychology and science of smell, discover the key fragrance families, and come to understand the historical and cultural ramifications that make the multi-billion dollar perfume industry what it is today. The Essence reveals the power of scent and fragrance to captivate--introducing key global locations, from the lavender fields of Provence and the laboratories where perfumes are created, to incense factories in India. The Essence introduces the trailblazers shaping the future and the vital role that technology and scented products will play in the 21st century, making the book an inviting read for fragrance novices and connoisseurs alike, opening up a new and fragrant world. "From the history of perfume to what the industry is evolving today, it aims to provide a broad overview of the subject." The New York Times "a patchwork of knowledge and interesting facts about perfumery and olfaction, conveyed in an eclectic and free-form style." Nez The Olfactory Magazine

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Was für ein Buch !
*by T***M on 2 November 2024*

Was für ein Buch ! Das Buch habe ich mir selbst gekauft, da ich ein großer Parfumliebhaber bin und das Buch ist einfach nur ein wow ! Für jeden der sich für die Parfumerie interessiert ist dies ein Meisterstück. Es ist in Englisch verfasst. Das Buch ist recht groß und dick und alle wichtigen Informationen befinden sich in diesem Buch ich bin echt verliebt. Der Text wird mit wunderschönen Bildern unterstützt und macht das Verständnis sehr einfach. Ich kann es nur weiterempfehlen.
