Praise For This Book |
The Perfume Collector is a crackling, beautifully paced story that weaves the world of fragrance into the lives of two vibrant women in a way few have experienced. Inhale deeply--a new way of telling a story of the heart." - Kate Alcott, author of The Dressmaker "Fragrance, fashion, and a puzzling bequest lead a 1950s British socialite into a whirl of Parisian intrigue in Kathleen Tessaro's The Perfume Collector." - Good Housekeeping "A colorful, stimulating journey through time." - Kirkus "A bewitching, compelling novel, full of dark desires, long-buried secrets, revisited memories, and new opportunities." - Booklist "Dazzles the senses." - Publishers Weekly "Beautiful imagery and prose are the strong points of this seductive story that paints the most bewitching picture imaginable of perfume creation and the muses who inspire it. The themes are brilliant . . . and likely to leave readers feeling awestruck by the end of this classy and unforgettable novel." - Romantic Times "A mesmerising novel of passion and scent." - Woman and Home (UK) "This evocative novel spins you back a few decades to the 20s and 50s where a young bride suppresses her intellect to be the trophy wife her husband desires. She is devasted when he is unfaithful but could it be the making of her?" - Glamour (UK) "Through vivid descriptions, lively mishaps and devastating details, Tessaro serves up a witty, original, fast-moving debut." - USA Today on Elegance |
