## Description

Fragrant: The Secret Life of Scent [Aftel, Mandy] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Fragrant: The Secret Life of Scent

Review: Wonderful, transporting! - A beautifully written book! A poetic integration of sensuality, philosophy, and history. Fascinatingly describes the origins and technicalities behind the production of perfumes, essential oils and other fragrant essences. I inhaled this book (heheheh). You'll learn a lot about the five essences she discusses, and come to more deeply appreciate the sense of smell and all of the feelings and experiences it can elicit within us. I find myself now slowing down and truly relishing scents and exploring them more deeply. On a lighter note, I have a kindle, but I chose to buy the hardcover after seeing at a bookstore because it is simply gorgeous. A pleasure to hold and look at. With metallic detailing on the cover, it's very eye catching. The photo on desertcart doesn't do it justice. A hardcover copy enhanced the reading experience for me. The one star review listed is hogwash, I doubt the reviewer even read the book. Mandy is actually biased against synthetic fragrances. You don't have to be a fragrance hobbyist or connoisseur to enjoy this book and really benefit from it. Treat yourself or a loved one to this jewel!
Review: An important and wonderful book for scent and perfume! - What an amazing re-release of this important book, Fragrant. The new perfumes in the book and the way this book outlines how to make perfume using Aftel’s method is invaluable. This is a must have book for perfume lovers and perfumers both!
