Add an articleBizans Uygarlığında buhur geleneği, buhurdanlıklar ve parfüm
Hoş kokulu maddeleri yakma ( tütsü ) geleneğinin; buhur eski çağlardan bugüne değin hep mevcut olduğundan, pagan kültürlerden günümüze kadar uzanan bir geçmişi mevcuttur. İncil de, bu geleneğin Hıristiyanlıkta olduğu gibi Musevilikte de yeri kabullenilmiştir. Başlangıçta, paganizm gibi çok tanrılı dinlerde kullanıldığından, ilk Hıristiyanlar tepki gösterse de, kutsal ayinlerin ritüeline girmeyi başarır. Kiliselerde dikkatimizi çeken minyatür ve resimler, Bizans ta buhur yakma geleneği üzerine bizi bilgilendirmektedir. Bu eserler sayesinde; Bakire Meryem ve diğer azizler adına yapılan ayinlerde, Kutsal Emanet ve Meryem ikonlarına tapınma sahnelerinde, evlilik ve vaftiz törenlerinde ve imparatorların kilise ziyaretlerinde buhur kullanıldığını görüyoruz. Bizans döneminden kalma buhurdanlıklar, ülkemizdeki ve yurt dışındaki müzelerde halen sergilenmektedir. Bizansta, bugünkü Mısır çarşısının yerinde bulunan Kapalıçarşı, baharat ve kokulu madde merkezidir. Bizans İmparatoriçesi Zoe parfüm üretir; Zoe ve kardeşi Theodoranın döneminde, Bizanslı kadınlar vücutlarını amber ve misk bazlı kokularla ovarlardı. Soylu hanımlar saçlarının arasında, sandastrum doldurulmuş küçük altın çıngıraklar taşırlardı. Bizansta ayrıca aromatik pastil ve kokulu şekerler bolca tüketiliyordu. Antik çağ insanı için güzel kokular tanrısal yakarışın simgesidir. Tapınakların içi, güzel kokan ağaç kabukları ve reçinelerle tütsülenerek, tanrılara ulaşıldığı düşünülüyordu

Wow - I have a friend/coworker who really wears too much but she has a happy family and I don't think she is depressed at all. Anyhow, good reading and knowledge here! I hope no one here wears too much. ;) Sometimes, I think the perfume can put you in a relaxed state though.

Suskind's genius in this book is to bring together a head chord of attachment disorder with a heart chord of perfumery ending with the a soulful chord addressing man's existential thirst to find himelf--in the Frog's case case in a world full of fish guts, cold stone, and heartlessness. The film makes the usual necessary sacrifices of details to fit in the time and medium, but effectively diffuses Suskind's perfume. The shooting is painterly, much is brought to life about perfume making in that age, and the actors (even Dustin Hoffman), show restraint. Ben Winshaw was the perfect glass to hold the complex Jean-Baptise Grenouille. Grenouille contained notes no one might care to experience in isolation, but, as the perfectly scented human he was compelled to be, he was irresistible.
