Today - Thursday the 6th of May - is the final day of our Kickstarter - we’re more than double our goal thanks to your amazing support. So obviously if you’ve not backed yet this is the time, thomasclipper.com/atlantic. You have until 9PM UK time - go go go, thank you!

Instead of talking about Atlantic or Kickstarter today, we’re going to take a step back and talk a bit about how important scent is in culture by exploring two of our favourite books on scent.

So pull up a glass, pour yourself a chair and welcome to the first - perhaps only! - edition of the Thomas Clipper book club...
