Perfume books: Luca Turin’s The Secret of Scent

Posted by Robin on 27 March 2006 2 Comments

Luca Turin's The Secret of Scent: Adventures in Perfume and the Science of Smell is due for publication in the UK this May. Last July I posted a brief description of the book; now you can also read an excerpt at Faber & Faber or pre-order it at The Book Place (UK). Many thanks to Barry for the link! Update: see a review of The Secret of Scent.

Per Luca Turin, we can expect a US release under Harper Collins this November.

    I have been looking forward to this. Oh, and while on the subject, finished Suskind's book Perfume. Unputdownable! What an ending though! Thanks for the link for Turin's new book.

    I am looking forward to it too!

    On Perfume: the ending is incredible. I am very interested to see if they will change it for the movie!
