Beauty Buzz

Take a leaf

Reading about perfume notes can be a bit of an academic exercise but all dedicated would-be noses need to get a copy of new book, The Perfume Lover by Denyse Beaulieu, €19.80. Part memoir and part heady whirlwind trip through the realities of the modern fragrance industry, the book also charts the development of Denyse’s own fragrance, Séville à l’Aube. Created by perfumer Bertrand Duchaufour for L’Artisan Parfumeur, it will land later this year — but deliciously, you can read all about the journey to the final scent now.
