Fragrance Reviews

`Particularly notable across the chapters is the multidisciplinary awareness of the researchers. This book provides a useful `state of the art' of the psychology of olfaction.'
International Journal of Aromatherapy
`This excellent volume contains the papers delivered at the Second International Conference on the Psychology of Perfumery, held in England two years ago...all the papers are by researchers with impressive credentials in the field of fragrance research and application. What's more, all are highly readable...this is a very valuable book for any serious student of fragrance and its role in every day life.'
