Autorenporträt
David Pybus, a poet himself, is also a contributor to this volume. Having spent much of his professional life closely connected with the world of aromas through his involvement in the cosmetics, toiletries and perfumery industry, he sees himself today as a twenty-first century Alchemist and Aromancer, with a mission to encourage people to take time out from their frenetic lives in order to 'smell the roses' (or the coffee!). He is also known as the Indiana Jones of the perfume industry, having made the search for and recreation of perfumes from history his particular quest, which are now available through his own enterprise. He is a recent winner on the BBC programme 'Dragon's Den'.
