Paperback

This fragrance is inspired by, and captures the essence of a paperback book. Made with the scents of vanilla, amyris wood, orris, dry cedar, salt, almond, tonka bean, bay leaf, white musk, amber, and amber fleur. Slightly powdery and woody, papery and dry, neutral, sophisticated, and alluring. Reminiscent of the pages of a freshly printed soft-cover or mass market. The perfect combination for indulging in the dreamy and visceral experience of books, getting lost in new and strange worlds, and cozy days and nights reading to the heart's content!

All she wanted to do was sit, unbothered in a circle of lamplight, and live someone else's life.” - from Hell Bent, by Leigh Bardugo — "I think of my pile of old paperbacks, their pages gone wobbly, like they'd once belonged to the sea." - from Never Let Me Go, by Kazuo Ishiguro — "…Books, especially paperbacks, have been printed in massive and inexpensive editions. For the price of a modest meal you can ponder the decline and fall of the Roman Empire, the origin of species, the interpretation of dreams, the nature of things. Books are like seeds. They can lie dormant for centuries and then flower in the most unpromising soil." - from Cosmos, by Carl Sagan
