This book is the long awaited completely revised and extended edition of  Günther Ohloff's standard work "Scent and Fragrances: The Fascination  of Odors and Their Chemical Perspectives". The prominent chemists  Günther Ohloff, Wilhelm Pickenhagen, and Philip Kraft convey the  scientist, the perfumer, as well as the interested layman with a vivid  and up-to-date picture of the state of the art of the chemistry of  odorants and the research in odor perception. The book details on the  molecular basis of olfaction, olfactory characterization of perfumery  materials, structure-odor relationships, the chemical synthesis of  odorants, and the chemistry of essential oils and odorants from the  animal kingdom, backed up by ca. 400 perfumery examples and historical  aspects.

It will serve as a thorough introductory text for all those interested in the molecular world of odors.

This  book is written for everyone who wants to know more about the molecular  basis of odor, and the relationships between chemical structures and  olfactory properties. The great structural diversity of odorants, their  synthesis, natural occurrence and their structure?odor correlation  demonstrate what a fascinating science Fragrance Chemistry indeed is.
