A review by hldavids
The Book of Lost Fragrances by M.J. Rose
3.0
The House of L'Etoile is in financial ruins. Jac has decided the best course of action is two sell their two flagship fragrances. Her brother Robbie believes instead that they can recreate the mythological memory fragrance instead. Then Robbie goes missing and is accused of murder. Jac comes back to France to find Robbie and her visions return. Perhaps the memory fragrance is more than just myth?
I was impressed with the variety of history and information woven throughout the tale, unfortunately I simply did not connect with the characters. Probably the librarian in me, but plagiarizing my dissertation in yours is an unforgivable sin - even for a fated true love.
