perfume

Perhaps scents evoke the privilege of invisibility. Before touch, scent occurs, as a messenger of an essence that knows how to disappear into the air and be an agent of great power. The seduction that scent unfolds is relentless: it settles in us and seals its power in the tissues of memory. Jean-Baptiste Grenouille has his birthmark: he emits no smell. At the same time, he possesses an exceptional gift: a prodigious sense of smell that allows him to perceive all the odors of the world. From the misery in which he is born, Grenouille fights against his condition and climbs social positions, becoming a renowned perfumer. He creates perfumes capable of inspiring sympathy, love, compassion in others. To obtain these masterful formulas, he must murder young virgin girls, obtain their bodily fluids, and liquefy their intimate scents. His art becomes a supreme and unsettling prestidigitation. Patrick Süskind transmits to us an acidic and disillusioned vision of man and proposes a literary immersion into the rainbow of scents and into the abysses of the human spirit. Converted into one of the greatest European cinematographic productions in history, El perfume is a book full of olfactory wisdom, imagination, and amenity.
