Perfume

A beautifully made scent can encapsulate a particular feeling, transport you to a very specific time in life with clarity, or remind you of a special loved one or friend. And just like wearing your finest outfit or shoes, your signature perfume can make you feel invincible. The question is, how do you find such a creation? In Perfume, Neil Chapman guides readers through a world that can at times seem overwhelming. His informative and witty 'scent atlas' features over 700 fragrances, from vintage perfumes through to department store classics, contemporary worldwide hits, conceptual 'anti-perfumes' and novelties. Scents are categorised by the note that predominates in the blend, making the process of appreciating perfume more accessible and user friendly.
