A book that appeals to more than just the sense of smell, The Scented House is one of my summer favorites. Although the theme of the entire book is decorating, crafting and cooking with natural aromatics, the photography and the projects are beautiful and even elegant, which is rather unexpected. The use of herbs, spices and flowers usually evokes a primitive perspective but these creations have a delightfully sophisticated edge. Traditional and natural materials are always appealling and spur a basic instinct to create.
