About, Subject, Related Details: Avon's founder, David H. McConnell, initially sold books as a door-to-door salesman to New York homes. In September 1886, he decided to sell perfumes rather than books. He started the new business in a small office at 126 Chambers Street, Manhattan, New York. McConnell changed the company name in 1892. His business partner suggested calling it the "California Perfume Company." His business partner was living in California at the time and suggested the name because of the abundance of flowers in California. (Source: Wikipedia.) ~ Arrives shrink wrapped, well packed.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "This is not a book for experts. It is a book that creates them."There is a moment familiar to anyone who has spent time around fragrance. A scent stops you in the middle of an ordinary day - and you cannot name it. It might be the amber warmth of someone passing in a corridor, or the sharp green of a garden after rain that a perfume somehow captures exactly. The experience lasts seconds. The memory can last years.The Art and Science of Perfume gives you the words, the knowledge, and the framework to understand that experience fully. Eight parts. Forty chapters. 319 pages. Nothing is assumed beyond curiosity.What the book coversPart One - A History of Perfume (7 chapters)From the incense temples of ancient Egypt and the alchemical distillation techniques of the Arab world, through Renaissance Europe and the synthetic revolution of the 19th century, to the golden age of French perfumery and the rise of niche houses. Nothing in contemporary perfumery makes sense without this foundation.Part Two - The Science of Smell (4 chapters)How the nose detects aroma molecules. How the brain processes olfactory information differently from every other sense. How skin chemistry alters a fragrance in the hours after application. This is the section most likely to change how you smell for the rest of your life.Part Three - Understanding Fragrance (4 chapters)The architecture of a composition - top, heart, and base. The practical meaning of concentration: EdP versus EdT versus parfum. How longevity, sillage, and projection actually work, and how to read a fragrance with trained attention.Part Four - The Olfactive Families (6 chapters)The classification systems used by professionals. A detailed study of the major families: Floral, Oriental and Amber, Woody, Fresh and Aquatic, Chypre, and Fougere - with the shared vocabulary to describe where any fragrance sits and why.Part Five - The Great Perfumers (6 chapters)The artists who defined the discipline: Francois Coty, Ernest Beaux, Edmond Roudnitska, Jean-Claude Ellena, Sheldrake and Lutens. What made their work exceptional, and what it teaches about composition and creativity.Part Six - Raw Materials (3 chapters)Naturals versus synthetics - the real argument, clearly explained. The supply chain from field to formula. The ingredients every informed buyer should be able to recognise and evaluate.Part Seven - How to Buy and Evaluate Fragrance (7 chapters)How to smell methodically. How to navigate the market without being misled. Fragrance and occasion. Building your first considered collection. Ten fragrances chosen specifically to train your nose. How to test longevity properly. How to avoid wasted purchases.Part Eight - ReferenceA full glossary of fragrance terminology, a historical timeline of perfumery, and a curated further reading list.A reader who works through to the final page will leave with the foundation of someone who genuinely understands the subject - not because this book contains every fact in the field, but because it provides the structure through which everything else begins to make sense.319 pages - 8 parts - 40 chapters - Published by Camerune Perfume Atelier This item is printed on demand.
