Plants have long harnessed the chemical characteristics of aromatic compounds to shape the world around them. In this accessible new book, biologist-turned-perfumer Elise Pearlstine investigates plants' evolutionary reasons for creating aromatic molecules. At the same time, she uncovers the natural history of aromatic substances and their intersection with human civilization.
