I really enjoyed the book the ending had me shocked. I also enjoyed Grenouille’s character and how he was perceived and that we got to see his thoughts and dreams it added a lot more depth to his character.

anhedonia_n_anomie's review against another edition
The book is a slow-burner—so takes a while to get to the meat of the plot—and with the main character being this inhuman creature (so to speak) who doesn't engage with anyone else in the story, doesn't speak, doesn't have much of an inner life (outside of what his superpowered olfactory sense brings to him), and who is just constantly behaving incredibly revoltingly—I just couldn't stick it out until things started going somewhere.
