Book Description: I B Tauris & Co Ltd, United Kingdom, 2006. Book Condition: as new. In Montpellier, 1748: Jean-Louis Fargeon is born into a family of perfumers and soon becomes apprenticed to his father's modest perfumerie. But he dreams of the glittering court of Versailles and of becoming perfumer to the young queen, Marie Antoinette. His ambition carried him to Paris where his boutique became one of the most elegant and wellpatronised in France. Concocting sumptuous perfumes and pomades for most of the French nobility, Fargeon eventually caught the attention of the queen. After meeting Marie Antoinette in the Trianon Palace, he began creating lavish bespoke scents that perfectly reflected her moods and personality. He served as her personal and exclusive perfumer for fourteen years until 1789 when the darkness of Revolution swept across France, its wrath aimed at the extravagance of a now hated queen. Fargeon, a lifelong supporter of the Republican cause, but a purveyor to the court, was in a dangerous position. Yet, he remained fiercely loyal to Marie Antoinette, beyond her desperate flight to Varennes, her execution and even through his own imprisonment and trial. Retail Price £14.99, you save 42%.

Book Description: EL ATENEO 10/2006, 2006. Rústica. 225x154x11. Jean-Louis Fargeon, perfumista de María Antonieta, nació en Montpellier en 1748. Como hombre del siglo de las luces, sueña con el sol de Versalles y con el boato de la Corte luego del matrimonio de la archiduquesa María Antonieta de Austria con Luis, el delfín de Francia. En su ciudad de nacimiento y capital de la perfumería francesa, Jean-Louis adquiere su oficio; en París lo convertirá en arte. Instalado en la calle de Roule, su boutique se vuelve de pronto el templo de la elegancia y su laboratorio un refugio de eruditos y curiosos. Pero su meta es Versalles y para llegar allí cuenta con el apoyo de sus clientes, entre ellas Madame Du Barry. Una vez logrado su sueño, será el favorito de la reina que se deleita con sus fragancias y que él adapta a los gustos y humores de la soberana. Perfumista de los príncipes de Francia hasta los acontecimientos de 1789, Fargeon permanecerá junto a la familia real hasta la huida de Varennes, pasando luego por la prisión del Temple y por su propio proceso. 196 pp. [Libro en Español / Book in Spanish].

This book offers a new look at the world of Marie Antoinette through the story of her personal and exclusive perfumer, Jean-Louis Fargeon.

Fargeon, a lifelong supporter of the Republican cause but a purveyor to the court, was in a dangerous position. Yet he remained fiercely loyal to Marie Antoinette, beyond her desperate flight to Varennes, her execution and even through his own imprisonment and trial.
