Description The sixth edition of Nez focuses on the ways in which fragrances impact our physical and mental well-being in a special feature entitled Mind & Body with contributors ranging from Dephine de Swardt to Denyse Beaulieu examining everything from the nose's ability to detect disease, the burgeoning field of aromachology (the study of how odors influence the mind) and how our taste in perfume can provide a window into our subconscious desires.

In addition to the special feature, this issue of Nez is packed with the thought-provoking articles and compelling features we've come to expect from this top-tier publication. Nez 6 is a veritable smorgasbord for fragrance lovers and includes a special report on the endangered status of Indonesian patchouli, an investigation into the world of scent marketing and an interview with tea master Yu Hui Tseng.

Abigail B. ★★★★★

The well-being feature alone is worth the price, and the English translation makes it easy to dive deep into why certain notes calm or energize me. I've already reread the section on mental health twice—it's that insightful.

Hazel ★★★★★

The deep dive into how scents affect mood and health in the Fall/Winter issue kept me turning pages for hours. The English translation reads smoothly, and the paper quality makes the photos of perfume bottles feel almost tangible. It's the kind of magazine I’ll revisit whenever I need a fresh perspe

Lucy ★★★★★

The special feature on fragrance and well-being is exactly the kind of thoughtful reading I wanted, and the Fall/Winter 2018 issue feels beautifully curated from cover to cover. I've already dog-eared several pages for reference and it's earned a permanent spot on my coffee table.
