Scent of Darkness (Vintage Contemporaries)

Bequeathed an original fragrance designed just for her by her perfumer grandmother, 18-year-old Evangeline becomes an object of intense desire to the men, women and even pets around her and eventually wonders if a lonely artist who does not register her scent may be the only person who loves her for herself. By the best-selling author of Hothouse Flower and the Nine Plants of Desire. 30,000 first printing.
