She was a proud feminist, a Birkenstock wearer, and a religious recycler; the only interests in which she came anywhere near self-indulgence were food and cooking. Until she chanced upon a blog and read a new kind of review--not of a novel or a recipe but of a perfume. How frivolous and girly, she thought at first. And yet, months later, she noticed she had begun to heard vials of fragrance samples. Embarking on a journey that takes her from perfume galleries and private laboratories in her hometown of Austin, TX, to the glamorous perfume showrooms of NYC, Harad discovers a secret network of perfume-traders, scent sharers, botanists, and fragrance enthusiasts around the world. Through them she comes to reassess her ideas about femininity, passion, her own long-term relationship--and what her life is about"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Feminists $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Perfumes industry $z United States. 650 0 $a Perfume $z United States. 650 0 $a Femininity $z United States. 650 0 $a Feminism $z United States. 941 $a 5 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204045254.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110031414.0 952 $l AAPF906 $d 20190717023113.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20181107045329.0 952 $l XJPC657 $d 20150214082912.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C944AD9EC59D11E188F7F9E06AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
