chemistry of fragrance,
By White 'n Nerdy (Texas) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Chemistry of Fragrances: From Perfumer to Consumer (RSC Paperbacks) (Hardcover)
if you love organic chemistry and fragrance this is the book for you! Otherwise it contains tiny tidbits of information for natural perfumers. Natural perfumers should buy something by Mandy Aftel. If you are into synthetic fragrance you might like this book.
