G. W. Septimus PiesseThe Art of Perfumery

Great book for knowledge points on perfumery.

love that is very informative and easy to read for beginners

The book covers pretty much the basics of perfumery. Nevertheless, the book is not as interactive. Too wordy.

Really good reference on the history of perfume and includes recipes you can try . Just an interesting book

For educational purposes

Excellent book for learning the serious art of perfumery. It’s definitely comprehensive and worth a study. 👍🏼

I bought this to get some more insight into the theory and artistry of mixing perfumes, and it's great information. However, this particular edition seems lacking.There are often random punctuation following some words, references to page numbers (none of the pages in this book are numbered), and references to illustrations (there are none).

This book was written before I was born, I believe...any how this stuff is extremely out of date. If you are looking for something historical, then try this. If you want current info, skip it.
