Der parfümierte Mann

After "The Smell of the World", the fragrance poet Paul Divjak devotes himself to a special story of fragrance: that of the perfumed man. In addition to an introductory cultural history of men's perfume, he gives a stylistically confident overview of the best fragrances from the 19th century to the present. From the confusing spray mist he has selected five perfumes, by means of which he shows what makes a good fragrance. And how have the roles of perfumes changed over the decades? How can one even describe the symbolic and ephemeral nature of fragrances? You will find the answers to these questions in this book, as well as numerous tips and perfume recommendations. Because one thing is certain: it is an art to smell good!
