Etymology
The word perfumery comes from perfume, which itself comes from the Latin parts per- 'through' and fumum 'smoke' because people first made scents by burning fragrant herbs and resins. The ending -ery turns a word into a place, like in bakery, so perfumery can mean a shop or workshop where scents are made or sold.
