Chemistry of Fragrances: From Perfumer to Consumer (RSC Paperbacks)

I also own Scent and Chemistry, this book is a lot easier to read. It's more well written and easier to comprehend, there are no annotations/diagram numbers breaking up every sentence. The diagrams are much fewer in number than the aforementioned text book but no less informative. If you are a student of perfumery this book is invaluable, I highly recommend it!

The Chemistry of Fragrances is informative, detailed and very helpful for anyone wanting to get into chemistry of fragrances.

very informative. good overview of fagrances chemistries,

Very good book, covered many topics and subjects , to understand this book well, you should have a chemistry background , I think the benefite from this book is gaining wide knowledge not technics ,,, the structure activity relationship chapter is one of the advanced subject about finding new fragrances, specially about odor behavior and physical chemistry of the fragrances,,,

The book is good and thank you...

Excellent

if you love organic chemistry and fragrance this is the book for you! Otherwise it contains tiny tidbits of information for natural perfumers. Natural perfumers should buy something by Mandy Aftel. If you are into synthetic fragrance you might like this book.

Very interesting and useful book for understanding more about fragrance and the ingredient chemistry behind

If you don't know your Diels-Alder from your Claisen, large parts of this book will be meaningless. If you do, the reaction descriptions are quite compressed and involve catalytic rather than laboratory reagents. This reflects its authorship - people whose job it is not just to make nice perfumes, but ones that are real-world practicable, affordable and safe.A refreshing change from the "if it's natural, it's safe" or "life force" approaches to perfumery. A workmanlike attempt to cover a whole range of marketing and perception issues, as well as the chemistry - which is rather fun if you like that sort of thing!
