Perfume Book Cover

Submission for the Penguin book cover competition - for Patrick Suskind's 'Perfume'.

The concept behind the design is based upon the main characters use of scent to take on other personalities, and his obsession with creating the finest scent of all, giving him god like powers of those around him.

Thinking of the the Alan Fletcher quote, regarding massaging a cliché until it becomes a metaphor... To what extent it's successful is open to question.
