Aromas are an integral part of our civilised society. They are not only used in fine perfumes, but also in numerous other articles with which we have daily contact. Another new development has been the agricultural use of aromas as a "biological weapon" to combat insects and other pests. In the field of dermatology, aromas are today among the most frequent sensitizers and may trigger allergic contact eczemas. This volume presents numerous aspects of the topic for the first time in comprehensive form. In an introduction, the chemistry of frequently used aroma components is described, together with the art of perfume composition that has been refined over the centuries. In a chapter on neuropharmacology, the mechanisms of scent recognition are described in detail.
On back cover: One in five Americans may experience harm from fragrance exposures. [This book] shows who is susceptible to these adverse effects, why they are susceptible, where they experience harmful fragrance exposures and what harmful properties fragrance materials may have.
One man's passion for perfume leads him to explore one of the most intriguing scientific mysteries: What makes one molecule smell of garlic while another smells of rose? In this witty, engrossing, and wildly original volume, author Luca Turin explores the two competing theories of smell. Is scent determined by molecular shape or molecular vibrations? Turin describes in fascinating detail the science, the evidence, and the often contentious debate—from the beginnings of organic chemistry to the present day—and pays homage to the scientists who went before. With its uniquely accessible and captivating approach to science via art, The Secret of Scent will appeal to anyone who has ever wondered about the most mysterious of the five senses.
The fascinating and mysterious world of scents and fragrances is freshly explained in a style that clearly demonstrates how their values can enhance our lives. The author shows how our physical and mental health, physical beauty, moods, and our personal image can all be enhanced and kept in better balance by a knowledge of, and the informed use of, aromas. Extending its advice to nominate scents for specific purposes, this simple book is essentially practical and an ideal introduction to a topic that is too often presented in an over-complicated way.
For as long as anyone can remember, a man named Luca Turin has had an uncanny relationship with smells. He has been compared to the hero of Patrick Süskind’s novel Perfume, but his story is in fact stranger, because it is true. It concerns how he made use of his powerful gifts to solve one of the last great mysteries of the human body: how our noses work. Luca Turin can distinguish the components of just about any smell, from the world’s most refined perfumes to the air in a subway car on the Paris metro. A distinguished scientist, he once worked in an unrelated field, though he made a hobby of collecting fragrances. But when, as a lark, he published a collection of his reviews of the world’s perfumes, the book hit the small, insular business of perfume makers like a thunderclap. Who is this man Luca Turin, they demanded, and how does he know so much? The closed community of scent creation opened up to Luca Turin, and he discovered a fact that astonished him: no one in this world knew how smell worked. Billions and billions of dollars were spent creating scents in a manner amounting to glorified trial and error. The solution to the mystery of every other human sense has led to the Nobel Prize, if not vast riches. Why, Luca Turin thought, should smell be any different? So he gave his life to this great puzzle. And in the end, incredibly, it would seem that he solved it. But when enormously powerful interests are threatened and great reputations are at stake, Luca Turin learned, nothing is quite what it seems. Acclaimed writer Chandler Burr has spent four years chronicling Luca Turin’s quest to unravel the mystery of how our sense of smell works. What has emerged is an enthralling, magical book that changes the way we think about that area between our mouth and our eyes, and its profound, secret hold on our lives.
The perfumes of life are all around us. Freshly mown grass, a pine forest, baking bread, the sea and the seashore all provide refreshing and welcoming fragrances, while the clinical smell of a hospital or the pungent stench of a farmyard may be less appealing. Our own personal aromas play a large part in the quality of our life as well, whether they are natural or chosen. The author demonstrates how fragrances in all forms can have life-improving values - as wearable perfumes, as flowers and spices to enhance the taste and appearance of food and drink, as plants to create beautiful gardens, as scents to calm or enliven the mind and spirit, as gentle, aromatherapeutic remedies for bodily ailments. The book also touches on the use and significance of perfumes throughout history and around the world, from ancient Egyptian temple decoration to ritual American smudging to floral feng shui. There are chapters on astrological associations and ghostly fragrances, as well as recipes for making personal perfumes for yourself and your home. Most people already have some idea of the power of perfume. This wide-ranging, informative book will help you to make it work for you.
