Perfumes: The Guide 2018

Perfumes: The Guide 2018

In 2008, Turin and Sanchez up-ended the world of fragrance with their critically acclaimed Perfumes: the Aâ€“Z Guide, one of Amazonâ€™s best books of the year, described by John Lanchester in the New Yorker as â€œravishingly entertaining,â€ by India Knight in the Sunday Times (UK) as â€œone of the best books I have ever read,â€ by Hilary Mantel as â€œopinionated, knowledgeable, sharply written and surprisingly comprehensive â€¦ a purely enjoyable book,â€ and by Philip Hensher as "a work of the highest criticism, one which elevates writing about perfume to the best sort of writing about wine or rock music." Ten years later they bring their inimitably passionate, erudite perspective back to the hugely changed world of fragrance, to sort out which of over 1,200 new individual perfumes deserves celebration (and which condemnation). The 2018 guide includes all new content, including - â€œTen Years Later,â€ looking back on the last decade of fragrance - â€œThe Shifting Shape of Fragrance 1918â€“2018,â€ describing changes over a hundred years of - fragrance history - all new Frequently Asked Questions - over 1,200 individual perfume reviews: masculine and feminine, mainstream and arcane, from the latest Guerlains to a five-star masterpiece by a small, little-known Malaysian firm - an expanded glossary - top ten lists, this time including not just top masculines and feminines but the best introverts and extroverts, the best retro, the best citrus, the best oud, and more
