The Story of Perfume


Event begins at 1pm PT / 2pm MT / 3pm CT / 4pm ET

What parts of the world do fragrances come from? Who invented them and what are their main ingredients? How did perfume cross from the sacred to the profane? Who were the first great perfumers? What role has the fashion industry played in the history of perfume? How do you become a successful 'nose'? What stories lie behind iconic perfumes such as Chanel's N°5, C K One, or Jean Paul Gaultier's Le Mâle?

Join us for a discussion with Élisabeth de Feydeau, author of the new book, The Story of Perfume. Lavishly illustrated with archival documents from the most beautiful fragrance brands, The Story of Perfume transports its readers into a precious and mesmerizing world. It is the perfect gift for special occasions and a must-have for all perfume lovers.

Élisabeth de Feydeau has a PhD in the history of perfume from the University of Paris-Sorbonne, teaches at the Versailles School of Perfumers and is a cultural adviser to leading luxury brands, including Christian Dior, Thierry Mugler, Chanel, Guerlain and Lancaster. She is the author of several books, including The Herbarium of Marie Antoinette and the novel A Scented Palace, both of which have been translated into several languages.
