Nez: The Olfactory Magazine 9

The glossy pages and vivid photography make the global olfactory tour feel immersive, and the Spring/Summer 2020 issue’s mix of essays and interviews kept me turning pages for days. I ended up with a whole new list of scents to hunt down.

This issue’s global focus is what sold me—reading about scent traditions from different countries made me feel like I was traveling. The English translation is smooth, and the spring/summer 2020 theme gives it a timeless, wanderlust quality.

The glossy pages and the way each article ties scent to a specific place—from bustling streets to quiet gardens—make this issue feel like a mini vacation. I caught myself reading it cover to cover in one sitting, and the Spring/Summer 2020 focus really captures that fresh, airy vibe.
