bailed

My mom always wore Chanel No. 5. Sentimental memories were the reason this book peaked my interest. I‘m sticking to my self-permission of bailing on any books that aren‘t satisfying my interests. Unfortunately, I bailed on this 16% of the way in. The writing and narration of the audiobook are fine. It‘s not the book, it‘s me.

The Secret of Chanel No. 5: The Intimate History of the World's Most Famous Perfume | Tilar J. Mazzeo

pick

Despite not being a huge perfume person, this book was fascinating! Chanel No 5 was the dream of an orphan and showgirl who climbed the rungs of society to be a style icon. This is the story to Coco in relation to the perfume. The book also went into the financial side looking at Coco‘s selling of the rights to the fragrance early and the fight to gain it back.

BarbaraTheBibliophage That cover is gorgeous. 6y

GlassAsDiamonds @BarbaraTheBibliophage I love it! It‘s also inverted on another book (on white). I know it‘s technically legal but I‘m ethically conflicted & think that‘s poor form!! 6y

BarbaraTheBibliophage Yes, I think that's right on the edge of proper. I'd be pissed if someone so closely ripped off my design. 6y
