So when a very drunk Diana stumbles into Armando, accuses his family of industrial espionage and throws up on him, you’d think he’d never want to see her again. But there was something about that shocking encounter that might just have got him hooked. Will these two polar opposite perfumers be able to overcome their differences and create a unique blend all of their own?

Scent of the Missing
Author: Susannah Charleson
Publisher: HMH
ISBN: 0547488505
Category : Pets
Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
A “haunting meditation on trust, hope and love” by a woman who adopts and trains a Golden Retriever puppy to become a search-and-rescue dog (People). In the wake of the Oklahoma City bombing, Susannah Charleson’s attention was caught by a newspaper photograph of a canine handler, his exhausted face buried in the fur of his search-and-rescue dog. Susannah, a dog lover and pilot with search experience herself, was so moved by the image that she decided to volunteer with a local canine team, plunging herself into an astonishing new world. While the team worked long hours for nonexistent pay and often heart-wrenching results, Charleson discovered the joy of working in partnership with a canine friend and the satisfaction of using their combined skills to help her fellow human beings. Once she qualified to train a dog of her own, Charleson adopted Puzzle—a smart, spirited Golden Retriever puppy who exhibited unique aptitudes as a working dog, but was a bit less interested in the role of compliant house pet. Scent of the Missing is the story of Charleson’s adventures with Puzzle as they search for a lost teen; an Alzheimer’s patient wandering in the cold; and signs of the crew amid the debris of the space shuttle Columbia disaster—all while unraveling the mystery of the bond between humans and dogs. “A riveting view of both the human animal bond and the training of search and rescue dogs. All dog lovers and people interested in training service dogs should read this book.” —Temple Grandin, author of Animals Make Us Human

The Ghost Perfumer
Author: Gabe Oppenheim
Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
This is the story of a genius and a fraud. For more than half a century, Olivier Creed, heir to a French fashion empire but out to conquer an adjacent field by himself, created the most compelling and costly perfumes in the world - scents so successful - artistically and commercially - that the world's largest asset manager bought his small olfactory enterprise for nearly $1 billion in 2020. One could arguably have called him the world's most capable perfumer. Except Olivier Creed never authored the scents for which he has long received acclaim and lucre. Gabe Oppenheim reveals the heretofore untold story behind this supposed-cologne colossus of a man - and the eponymous company that became a social media sensation: That scents were authored by someone else entirely - a brilliant ghostwriter - a hidden, scholarly figure with a great passion for Proust and an unfortunate tendency to doubt the quality of his own compositions. How these two figures met and the arrangement was struck - how they circled each other warily for the next 40 years - how lies, told often enough, became truths - Gabe Oppenheim examines as he journeys into the heart of an industry mystifying and fanciful, enormous and intimate, sensuous and yet so-damn-insubstantial. It's an expedition that takes him to a Creed shop in Dubai and the castle in Normandy where the Ghost resides, having left behind a Parisian world that, in some sense, never acknowledged him. And yet, he's a legend in a certain section of the scented demimonde for a few achievements so innovative he wouldn't yield them even to a charismatic manipulator. Oppenheim explores issues of attribution and artistry, credit and craftsmanship, ingenuity and disingenuousness. "The Ghost Perfumer" is the story of a genius and a fraud. And perhaps the greatest con in the history of luxury retail.

Book Description
Fragrance of love is a powerful thing. It can make you feel happy, sad, or even nostalgic. It can transport you to a different time and place. And it can remind you of someone you love. I remember the first time I smelled the fragrance of love. I was walking down the street, and I caught a whiff of something so sweet and intoxicating. I followed the scent until I found its source: a young couple, walking hand-in-hand and laughing. I stood there for a moment, just watching them. They were so in love, and it showed in their every gesture. The way they looked at each other, the way they touched each other, the way they laughed together. It was all so beautiful. And then, as if they could feel my eyes on them, they turned to look at me. And in that moment, I knew what love was. It was the feeling of being completely and utterly at peace. It was the feeling of being home. It was the feeling of being loved. I smiled at the couple, and they smiled back. And then, I turned and walked away, carrying the fragrance of love with me. I have never forgotten that moment. And I will never forget the fragrance of love.
