Publicity
Elisabeth de Feydeau
today tells a story of love, seduction and desire.
But it is neither cinema, nor painting, nor literature, even if all these artistic disciplines have spoken about it.
It's a story of notes, chords and dissonance, but it's not music, even if it's a composer's business too.
It is a story of glass and resin, but it is not matter, even if it is never far from crafts.

", Let us be carried away by" the fastest means of transport ", as Louise de Vilmorin said mischievously: perfume.
Elisabeth de Feydeau's “Dictionary of Perfume Lovers” has been published by Plon editions.
