Description
'Witty, stylish and ferociously absorbing' Observer Jean-Baptiste Grenouille is abandoned on the filthy streets of eighteenth-century Paris as a baby, but grows up to discover he has an extraordinary gift: a sense of smell more powerful than any other human's. Gradually he learns how to exploit this gift in the art of creating the most sublime perfumes in France. Yet there is one scent he cannot capture: the scent of an innocent young virgin. In order to perfect his experiments, he must have this final ingredient, at any cost. A cult international bestseller, Perfume is a bewitching, darkly humorous fable of desire, obsession and death.

A page turner!!
The book gives you an olfactory view of 18th century France. The author makes you see the world with your nose, or rather Grenouille's nose.Amazing characterization of the protagonist,weird,mad,genius,devilish,leaves you bewildered and makes you empathize with him at times but he wants none of it.
He is only after the perfect scent.Meditation of a twisted mind.Gives you a glimpse into the psychology of a cold blooded serial killer.
Unputdownable,one of its kind story not fitting into any genr...

An Olfactory Reading Experience
This book is very well-written. It has murder, a weird kind of eroticism(?) and a fantastic critique on the human society. It was weird reading it though. When I was reading another book after I was done with this one, I kept asking, "Why isn't this writer describing what they all smell like?". It's a great book, though it didn't entertain me much.
The quality of the paper is mediocre compared to the price but the cover is so fantastic! I bought this on the Big Billion Day and assumed that i...

Worthless
To be very honest the book was only interesting in the beginning and at the end, in the middle it was boring, very boring.
