It is based on a novel.
This baby is born to a woman at a fish market. She just squats down and pops him out into a pile of rotting fish guts and kicks him to the side, stands up and keeps selling fish. She has had all stillbirths before him and doesn't even check to see if he is alive.
He starts crying and draws attention to himself. She goes to the gallows for leaving him to die.
He goes to an orphanage and everyone is creeped out by him because he is always sniffing everything. He is obsessed with scent and can name any scent.
After being sold to a tanner for a few francs, he seeks out a perfumer to teach him how to capture scent.
Then, he becomes obsessed with the natural scent of beautiful young women and how to capture that essence. His obsession drives him to murder them to capture their scent and bottle it to mix together to make the perfect perfume. He was born without a scent of his own and figures what he needs is this perfect fragrance.
Without revealing the ending, I can say that the last 10 minutes were very BIZARRE. There was a mass orgy and then a bit of cannibalism...lol.
