This was an account of how new perfumes are created. The author is a Frenchman who works for Hermes, I believe, and created one of the new modern scents (which has been widely imitated) based on the smell of tea. Modern perfumers seek not just to recreate scents such the smell of roses, but to work with ingredients to create a new scent that is an artistic work. The author uses a large palette of ingredients; one can almost smell the wonderful aromas. However, this book was a little hard to follow; I think it was originally written in French and I had no previous knowledge of the subject.
This book contained one really wonderful quote, which I will repeat as well as I can remember: "An illusion is not a lie; it is a way of making our dreams come true."
