Our aim is to better understand the practice of ancient Egyptian and Greek perfumery, to study and establish its place in the history of chemistry and science, and to examine the changing connections between art, craft, science and culture in the ancient Mediterranean world. We are hosted by the Department for the Study of Ancient and Medieval Thought at the Institute of Philosophy, Czech Academy of Sciences. ![]() ![]() Alchemies of Scent is a multidisciplinary research group funded by a generous grant from the Junior Star Program of the Czech Science Foundation (GACR Grant ID 21-30494M). ![]()
