The Art of Scent, 1889-2012

Chandler Burr, fragrance aficionado and author of The Emperor of Scent, has curated an exhibition at the Museum of Arts and Design entitled "The Art of Scent". If you're in the New York City area between November 13, 2012 - February 24, 2013, please show your support.

"The exhibition focuses on twelve works made between 1889 and 2012, and will include Jicky, created by Aimé Guerlain in 1889; Ernest Beaux’s Chanel N° 5 from 1921; Jean-Claude Ellena’s Osmanthe Yunnan from 2006; and Daniela Andrier’sUntitled, created in 2010."

The New York Times recently featured an article and interview on the subject as well:


A personal thank you to Mr. Burr for emphasizing the importance of perfume as a recognized art form, a topic important to me and no doubt to those of you who visit sites such as this one.
