Issue 21 of Nez: The Smell of the Future: ""Exactly 10 years ago, a magazine of a new kind was published, and honestly, if someone had shown me the cover of this 21st issue in a crystal ball, I don’t know if I would have believed it. Just as I probably wouldn’t have believed the staggering figure of 11,500 visitors who climbed the steps of the Palais Brongniart a few weeks ago to attend the largest olfactory culture event ever organized in Paris an event born from this very magazine. I would have suspected such a frenzy even less when I was scribbling my first perfume reviews in a notebook 20 years ago. In short, while scents are known for their ability to transport us into the past, taking an interest in them does not grant us the power to see into the future. But, without knowing why or how, our nose – provided it’s keen – sometimes allows us to anticipate, or even shape, our tomorrows." -Editor’s note by Jeanne Doré (Editor in Chief of Nez)" 160 pages, $45 at Luckyscent.

Issue 20 of Nez: "From myths to legends, briefs to advertisements, books to films, how do scents tell their story?

Issue 19 of Nez: "Does it smell good, or does it stink? Between the smells that charm and the fragrances that disturb us, how does our nose understand vice and virtue?

Issue 18 of Nez is out: "Whether on packaging, in bottles, nature or our brain, can we smell it in Technicolor? In this latest edition of Nez, titled The Color of Smells, the relationship between color and odor is explored from all perspectives for a fascinating look into the connections between the visual world and the olfactive one. Nez invites us to explore the world via our sense of smell, adopting a novel approach that encompasses art, literature, photography, science, history, gastronomy and perfumery to illustrate the essential role that olfaction plays in our lives." 160 pages, $39 at Luckyscent.
