Publisher's Synopsis
"Grenouille discerned magnolia, hyacinth, daphne and rhododendron ...but there seemed to be something besides,m something in the garden that gave off a fatally wonderful scent." As Suskind stated in his book ′Perfume: The Story of a Murderer′, odors can cast a spell upon us. Their power seems almost magical to us; yet, the art, chemistry, and technology behind smell and taste is no mystery. This volume presents the contributions to the 2007 RSC/SCI ′flavours & fragrances′ conference held at the Imperial College, London, and comprises 28 articles of the talks present at this meeting, which hosted academic and industrial speakers, and delegates from all corners of the world exchanging ideas and information. It will prove a valuable source of up–to–date information for all professionals in the flavor an fragrance industry and academic researches interested in this field, and it can also sere as an advanced textbook.
