Description
Eric Foster, a student at France’s famous perfume institute in Versailles, is ecstatic when a fragrance he creates turns out to be a powerful aphrodisiac—similar to that used by the Queen of Sheba to lure King Solomon to her bed. But when Eric’s creation is tied to a series of NY homicides, he becomes the prime suspect. To prove his innocence, he ventures with forensic colleague, Tanya, to Yemen, into the dark underbelly of the world of fragrance.

Reader comments:
“A most unusual book . . . a delicious story and fun to read. I couldn’t wait to get back to it each night. Very much liked the insights into the world of fragrance. I know that scent is primal and influences much of how we react to people and what we remember through the years. And the sex is sexy and the author pulled if off quite well without overdoing it.”
“Terrific!—Unlike any other I’ve read.”
Had not finished a book in more than 10 years, yet I couldn’t put Aphrodesia down until I was done.”
