The cult book, updated. 52 legends, new insights, stunning images.

Revised and updated in 2019, Perfume Legends II presents new research, stunning images and eight new legends.

First published in 1996 and now considered one of the most significant books written on modern perfumery as creators, perfumers, couturiers, bottle designers and fragrance house executives spoke openly about their fragrances. The result was a gold mine of insight. 

Mr. Edwards, renowned perfume specialist and leading authority on fragrance classification (he’s been releasing his annual “Fragrances of the World” reference books since 1983) was the first author to give voice to the very people who had created some of the most beloved fragrances of all time: the perfumers themselves. His extensive interviews with them, as well as with brand owners, creative directors, bottle and fashion designers, were seamlessly blended with his own research and engaging story-telling, resulting in his substantial work “Perfume Legends: French Feminine Fragrances”. At the time the book covered forty-five iconic scents (ranging from the end of the 19th century to 1992), and its tirage was soon exhausted; in fact, since the early 2000s, obtaining a copy has been a major goal of many a devoted perfumista. 

Fortunately, Mr. Edwards’ outstanding book is once more available, in a revised/updated 360-page edition enriched with nine additional “fragrance legends”, under the title “Perfume Legends II: French Feminine Fragrances”. Seven of the new chapters are dedicated to fragrances that were released after 1991 (Shiseido Féminité du Bois,  Maurice Roucel’s Rochas Tocade,  Calice Becker’s Dior J’Adore, FlowerbyKenzo, CHANEL Coco Mademoiselle,  Bertrand Duchaufour  for L’Artisan Parfumeur Timbuktu, Frederic Malle’s Portrait of a Lady by Dominique Ropion), while two more perfumes from previous decades, Robert Piguet Fracas and  Guerlain Nahéma, have also been also included (the former one had been omitted in 1996 due to its – then – mediocre formulation, the latter because it hadn’t been possible to discuss its creation with perfumer Jean-Paul Guerlain).

Why Perfume Legends II after 20 years?

“In an age where so many perfumes have been changed, altered, or destroyed – if it were not for the Osmotheque or Perfume Legends how would we know where it all started, what it was meant to be and why it had such impact? I am the curator of the written perfume museum, therefore it was inevitable that the book had to be revised” - Michael Edwards

Reference Book 2020 & 2021 

almost 5000 launches from 2020 & 2021. A collectible and very useful reference library that will grow with each new edition.

His annual reference, Fragrances of the World® , started in 1983 as a simple guide for retailers, listing just 323 fragrances. Today, it has become the industry’s most comprehensive classification of fragrances, universally regarded as the fragrance ‘bible’. It makes finding a new fragrance an exciting journey rather than a difficult chore.

Edwards’ Fragrance Wheel, the nose ‘map’ he developed to explain the relationship between the 14 different fragrance families, has become a universal icon of perfume classification: Google ‘fragrance+wheel’ to check how many millions of links result.

This edition is the first in a new series of Fragrances of the World reference books. Going forward, each reference book will list the fragrances launched during the two previous years in their respective fragrance families; with this edition featuring almost 5000 launches from 2020 & 2021. A collectible and very useful reference library that will grow with each new edition.

In the database, all fragrances are classified by family, note and sub-note using Michael Edwards’ Fragrance Wheel. Bottle image, olfactive pyramid, launch date, brand, olfactive direction, perfumer and bottle designer are just some of the searchable data points we record for every fragrance.

Perfume critic Luca Turin calls it “the only comprehensive, historically accurate, factually reliable and artistically consistent database of fragrance in existence.

The ultimate fragrance reference book, universally regarded as the fragrance ‘bible’. This bilingual English and French guide remains perfumery’s most comprehensive and accurate classification reference. Dubbed the ‘perfume experts’ expert’, Edwards is the industry’s only impartial and independent authority. He makes no charge for listing or classifying new fragrances. He declines both advertising and sponsorship.

SPECIAL INDIAN REPRINT !!

During the past 150 years, organic chemists have attempted to solve the mystery of roasted coffee flavour and only recently have its secrets been uncovered. To date more than 800 chemical components have been identified and confirmed by synthesis. These compounds belong to a wide range of chemical structures, the most typical being novel substituted heterocycles. This research has significantly contributed to the development of modern organic chemistry. No monograph has been published on the long and rich history of coffee flavour analysis and synthesis. Despite numerous reviews, there is no comprehensive work which summarises this important aspect of the flavour chemistry of this world famous beverage. Coffee Flavour Chemistry provides a complete analytical and synthetic survey of the chemistry of coffee flavour constituents and answers questions including: How are these compounds formed during the roasting? What structure do they have? How do they contribute to the smell and the taste of the beverage? Who identified them. In addition, the reactions contributing to the formation of flavour compounds in coffee mirror those occurring in other flavour systems resulting in interest from chemists interested in flavours other than coffee.

This, the first comprehensive review of coffee flavor chemistry is entirely dedicated to flavor components and presents the importance of analytical techniques for the quality control of harvesting, roasting, conditioning and

distribution of foods.
* Provides a reference for coffee specialists and an introduction to flavor chemistry for non-specialists
* The author is a research chemist with Firmenich SA, one of the few great flavor and fragrance companies in the world

* Contains the most recent references (up to 2001) for the identification of green and roasted coffee aroma volatiles

Description

The use of light in organic synthesis, more specifically the use of visible light in photoredox catalysis, has developed rapidly over the last 15 years and it is now time to define its impact on the field.

Aimed at both newcomers to the field and experts alike, Photocatalysis in Organic Synthesis introduces the important basic concepts of photophysics and describes typical laboratory set-ups for photoredox catalysis, thus enabling instant and reliable application of these new synthetic tools. Key photocatalytic transformations are discussed in detail, including representative experimental procedures, followed by a collection of industrial case studies. Rather than aiming for a comprehensive coverage, solutions are presented for challenging transformations in synthesis that employ visible light and suitable dyes. To this end, the authors, a team of pioneers and leaders in the field, discuss both the practical and conceptual aspects of this rapidly growing area of synthetic chemistry. A primary objective is to present a collection of the most useful, practical, and reliable methods of photocatalysis to a wider audience.

Parry’s Cyclopedia of Perfumery. A Handbook on the raw materials used by the Perfumer, their origin, properties, characters and analysis; and on other subjects of theoretical and scientific interest to the User of Perfume Materials, and to those who have to examine and value such materials.

By Ernest J. Parry, B.Sc., F.I.C., F.C.S. Two Volumes. 1925.

The materials are treated in alphabetical order in about 900 pages; as indicated, some of the subjects are discussed at length, others are dismissed with a few lines only, according to their importance in the perfume industry. The work displaces other books, because great progress has been made in the industry; it will, accordingly, be welcomed by manufacturers of perfumes, dealers in such materials and scientists, and as a reference book in libraries of manufacturers, universities and technical institutions.

The author states that the need for a scientific work of reference devoted to perfumery and its raw materials has long been felt. He has very successfully supplied the want; formulas for finished perfumes are not dealt with-the reasons assigned are that really good formulas are rarely published and the best gf these are merely an index to the perfumer.

Summary

This volume provides an insight into the future strategies for commercial biocatalysis with a focus on sustainable technologies, together with chemoenzymatic and biotechnological approaches to synthesize various types of approved and new active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) via proven and latest synthetic routes using single-step biocatalytic or enzyme cascade reactions. Many of these drugs act as enzyme inhibitors, as discussed in a chapter with a variety of examples. The targeted enzymes are involved in diseases such as different cancers, metastatic and infectious diseases, osteoporosis, and cardiovascular disorders. The biocatalysts employed for API synthesis include hydrolytic enzymes, alcohol dehydrogenases, laccases, imine reductases, reductive aminases, peroxygenases, cytochrome P450 enzymes, polyketide synthases, transaminases, and halogenases. Many of them have been improved with respect to their properties by engineering methods. The book discusses the syntheses of drugs, including alkaloids and antibiotics, non-ribosomal peptides, antimalarial and antidiabetic drugs, prenylated xanthones, antioxidants, and many important (chiral) intermediates required for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals.

Summary

Are herbal drugs totally devoid of adverse effects when used alone, as herbal formulations, or in concurrent use with modern medicines? Safety Concerns for Herbal Drugs examines that question and others like it to give you the information you need to judge for yourself the balance between the risks and benefits associated with the therapeutic use of medicinal plants. It stands out from other books by directing your attention to the aspects of safety and toxicity.

The authors venture into the relatively unexplored (or deliberately hidden) side of the picture. They present a survey of approximately 1500 medicinal plants and herbal products, 59 global (from 27 countries) and 75 Indian examples of toxic and adverse effects and drug interactions. Additionally, they present the current status of regulatory laws and their enforcement in 73 countries to support their contention that such laws and enforcement are inadequate, and that herbal drugs are unscientifically being promoted as totally safe.

To give you the full picture, the authors go on to examine such issues as danger from large-scale misuse and abuse, self-prescription, substitution, adulteration, concurrent use with modern medicines, hazardous but avoidable drug interactions, risk groups, and present status of drug regulations.

Summary

The Art and Science of Dermal Formulation Development is a comprehensive guide to the theory and practice of transdermal and topical formulation development, covering preclinical studies, evaluation, and regulatory approval. It enables the reader to understand the opportunities and challenges in developing products and how risks can be mitigated. Over the last 25 years, expertise in this area has declined whilst drug delivery systems for other administration routes have developed significantly. The advantages offered by transdermal and topical drug delivery remain compelling for sectors including the pharmaceutical industry, personal care, and cosmetics. This text addresses the dearth of expertise and discusses how skin can be a route of delivery and the processes in formulation development, but how such an application is very different to that used for oral, IV, and other administration routes.
