For perfumers, scents have a thousand tendernesses to which they are attentive. So many subtle notes that they take care to arrange and combine to compose olfactory stories called perfumes.
Lavender, vetiver, jasmine, cinnamon... Immersed in these familiar scents as if they were memories or landscapes, Jean-Claude Ellena explores the diversity and composition of scents through a poetic, geographical, and botanical journey. Linked to the history of world exploration, new lands, and their populations, this varied and astonishing map of scents is magnificently illustrated by Karin Doering-Froger.
