Tanaïs' literary debut IN SENSORIUM was named one of Vogue's “7 LGBTQ+ Books We Can't Wait to Read This Year.” They write: "This memoir from writer and perfumer Tanaïs is as ambitious as it is wide-ranging, telling the story of their experience as an American Bangladeshi Muslim femme moving around the world in a wise and engaging manner that asks deeply relevant questions about queerness, gender, colonization and South Asian identity." The book was also selected as Lit Hub’s Astrology Book Club pick for “Cancer”: "Everyone knows that smell is the sense most strongly tied to memory, and by extension to emotion—two things that Cancers know a thing or two about. They will happily dive into the pool of sensations that is this memoir by writer and independent perfumer Tanaïs, and if they’re lucky, come out a little bit changed." Harper will publish the book on February 22, 2022.
