The Essence of Perfume: The Master Perfumer's Definitive Guide Hardcover – Illustrated, 31 Mar. 2014

A wonderful informative reference book. Roja Dove writes with such passion so that the reader becomes wrapped in warmth and imagination; my lust for sampling fragrances has been provoked to the max! Roja writes in depth explanations on all aspects of perfumery and its Heritage. Would not be without this book; it is a Treasure.

Having developed an interest in fine and niche fragrances I knew I had to purchase this book by Mr Roja Dove world expert on perfumes. So far I have had a quick glance. The pictures are sumptuous and the written content very easy to follow.

Bought as a present for a friend. Great, thick book with lots and lots of interesting stuff inside. This will serve great as a coffee table book for fashion/perfume enthusiast.
