You can smell the stench of poverty, when in the slums
of 18th century France, a baby, Jean-Baptiste
Grenouille, is born. An otherwise tragic and pathetic
soul, he is gifted with a perfect sense of smell, yet
no personal odor of his own. An extraordinary and
unwanted child, that has never known a days kindness
or love, he trawls his way through the filty squalor
of the underbelly of Paris, in search of the "ultimate
perfume."
