What is important to evaluate, when I smell a perfume?; How can I recognize the raw materials?; Chypre, Oriental or Woody? How can I understand which olfactory family it belongs to?; How do I recognize a beautiful perfume?. Perfume is an extraordinarily powerful means of expression: the voice of a well-crafted fragrance can take your breath away, transport you back in time, evoke dreams, visions, and desires. But decoding its language may be tricky. Understanding the perfume language will help you make wiser purchase choices, but also to find your perfect match. Or many possible matches, according to your evolving tastes. The Perfume Language is a pleasantly informative and non-technical manual leading the reader on an exploration journey among natural and synthetic raw materials, accords, pyramids, structures, distribution, and marketing dynamics. The Perfume Language allows the reader to clarify codes, concepts, and terms often used incorrectly. It contains a rich bibliography/webgraphy, and offers several exploration itineraries among the fragrances currently present in stores, with the aim of helping the reader to select what to wear with the competence of a real expert. Marika Vecchiattini is a technically trained consultant, an author, and a blogger: her perfume blog Bergamotto e Benzoino (bilingual: Eng/Ita) was opened in 2006.
