Perfume: The Story of a murderer is the first novel by German writer Patrick Suskind, published in 1985 under the original title Das Parfum, die Geschichte eines Mörders. Immediately became a best-seller, translated into over forty languages \u200b\u200bworldwide.
Perfume, divided into four parts and fifty-one chapters, takes the reader to a world that is unfamiliar, "the evanescent realm of odors", through his protagonist, Jean-Baptiste Grenouille (Grenouille means frog in French.)
The story of Grenouille, "one of the most gifted and abominable men of his time", set in eighteenth century France. From birth, Grenouille discovers and perceives the world through the sense of smell, which is more developed than other people. These, in turn, are sometimes disturbing that capacity Grenouille. He lacks a specific odor.
