Cosmetics & Perfumes in the Roman World by Susan Stewart {Fragrant Reading}

We owe the Romans the very word of "perfume". To learn more about the classical roots of our perfume heritage we can now read a work by specialist of classical antiquity Susan Stewart who released a book entitled Cosmetics and Perfumes in The Roman World, Tempus, 2007 in February in the UK, and which will soon be available in the US, in principle sometime in September.

It is now available for pre-order on Amazon for $23.10.
