Summary: "A compelling and poignant search for identity through perfume. Granny Seren told me I had a natural talent for perfume making and I believed her because she seemed to know what she was talking about and she never lied. It was Seren who introduced me to the idea of a signature scent. After fourteen years as a university lecturer, Si n is made redundant as a result of restructuring in the Humanities. As a professional, financially independent woman, she didn't need a signature scent to know who she was. But now, having lost her sense of purpose and identity, she begins to construct a perfume of herself. Note by perfume note, referencing scent memories and recent events, she rebuilds herself, Scented." -- Back cover.
