Discover both aspects of scent in this fascinating interactive guided tour of some of the world's fragrance masterpieces, led by Chandler Burr, fragrance critic for The New York Times Style Magazine and author of “The Perfect Scent: A Year Inside the Perfume Industry in Paris & New York.” You will smell jasmine from Grasse, pink peppercorn absolutes and tuberose from Peru and India, and masterpieces of scent art both classic and new for men and women. Discussion followed by book sale and signing.
