## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent information written more like a chemistry text
*by J***L on August 19, 2013*

This book is choc-full-o-information and is very useful, I recommend it to anyone diving into perfumery. I do not have a strong chemistry background, just a little in high school and some self study. I also own The Chemistry of Fragrances. Both books are excellent but Scent and Chemistry is a lot more difficult to read because even the history sections are written from the perspective, mode of speech and writing style of a scientist so the information is not presented in a very interesting or approachable way to me as an artist. Annotation numbers referencing chemical bond diagrams break up every sentence, visually they are like speed and comprehension bumps in the text. If you are accustomed to reading white papers in chemistry this book might be easier for you to read through but it lacks that smooth cohesion that one would expect from a well written text book. I don't mean to say that it's not informative or that it's poorly written, it's just not well written in the way that a good writer does. The publisher could tone down the illustration numbers by removing the bold type-face and making them smaller than the rest of the text, that would improve readability. This book moreso than The Chemistry of Fragrances has tons of diagrams and illustrations but most of them are chemical bonds so you need to understand what you are looking at in order to find those illustrations useful in the context of the text since it is visually broken by the annotations. Over all I'd say this book is worth every penny and very valuable as a text book but there is always room for improvement.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Both fun and academic....brimming with edifying material as well as ideas for fragrances to try
*by J***X on February 5, 2017*

This is one of the best books available to understand structure, synthesis, and use of hundreds of fragrance molecules. Perhaps beyond the ken of most perfume enthusiasts, the book is nonetheless very useful as a reference. There is a section following each chapter's discussion of a fragrance molecule family that actually details many commercially-available perfumes featuring a specific molecule, complete with concentrations! This volume will open up a new world to those who merely love perfume. For those of us with chemistry background, it is an indispensable grounding in the science of scent.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good price for this valuable book
*by G***F on January 8, 2019*

Great quality and my favorite book .Exactly the thing I was looking for
