Perfume seller gets into groove extracting essence (6)
I believe the answer is:
chanel
'perfume' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for chanel that I've seen before include "See 1" , "Coco --, French fashion designer" , "Scent company" , "French fashion designer and perfumier, d. 1971" , "Coco -, Fr. designer" .)
