Based on the best-selling novel by Patrick Suskind, Perfume: The Story of a Murderer is a story of deadly obsession set in 18th-century France. Jean-Baptiste Grenouille, orphaned as a newborn in the streets of Paris, is alone in the world. Grenouille is alienated from others but blessed with a remarkable gift, his sense of smell. Eager to learn the art of creating sophisticated fragrance, he proves to be a savant who possesses an almost mystical knowledge of scent. When he discovers the most intoxicating scent he has ever experienced - the natural fragrance of a beautiful young girl - he learns that the only method to preserve her innocence and fresh beauty will require murder. Grenouille must capture the final ingredient for his greatest perfume - the essence of a beautiful redheaded girl whose wealthy father earnestly protects her.
Perfume: The Story of a Murderer brings Patrick Süskinds international bestseller to the screen twenty years after its initial publication and literary success. Laced with suspense, black humour and metaphysical mystery, the film stars British newcomer Ben Whishaw as Grenouille, who heads a cast that includes Alan Rickman, Rachel Hurd-Wood and two-time Academy Award-winner Dustin Hoffman.
