Late Night Chat - Books, Art & Perfume

Late night chat around art and perfume, suggestions of books if you're interested in blending. Mandy Aftel - The Secret Life Of Scent (Focuses more on natural, simple perfumes, and how to create them, drop by drop, with a history of perfume. A good starting place!) Robert R Calkin - Perfumer, Pracitce & Principles (Covers synthetics, industry secrets, and chemistry. I would not recommend if you are not interested in Chemistry and the complex science behind perfume.) Scent And Chemistry - The Molecular World Of Odors (Covers what oils are used in certain perfumes, at what percentages. Covers synthetics and naturals, as well as the chemistry side of perfume. Quite in depth, and again complex.. not a light read)
