Coco in Hoboken


This looks interesting: The secret of Chanel No. 5: The intimate history of the world’s most famous perfume. The author is wine writer/historian Tilar Mazzeo. The New York Post is all over it because of the perfume’s little-known New Jersey connection.

  1. Is it just the Post article or does the book's description sound like a hybrid of No. 5 (lots of aldehydes, very hard to pick out any specific notes) and Joy (Roses and Jasmine, very high price)?
