In The Library is a scent of old books; Russian & Moroccan leather bindings, worn cloth and a hint of wood polish.
It is available as 2 and 15 ml perfume absolute, 100 ml water perfume and 150 ml home spray. The nose behind this fragrance is Christopher Brosius.
My favorite perfume to date and a staple for the fall: this perfume smells like dusty old pages of library books and I love carrying that smell with me throughout the day. The 15 mL bottle goes on subtly and fades fast, within a few hours or so. It tends to dry as a vanilla, musky scent on my skin, although I've noticed more leather on the smell of my friends--most definitely depends on body type. My bottle was mixed for me in person at the Brooklyn store as well, and it smells different from the sample size--dustier, somehow. Still, definitely a favorite scent.
I enjoyed trying this fragrance- It's very witty, very odd. There's definitely a library somewhere. I can smell the polish of the wood, leather bindings and slightly musty papers. I can also smell the old gentleman in the corner who uses a lot of vanilla pipe tobacco....and a coconut.
Splendid to experience- but I wouldn't wear it.
This is a real delight and is almost impossible describe. I think this one of those fragrances that will really vary according to your individual body chemistry. On me, the initial scent was hard to place, a hint of sweet leather and warm woody tones, but evaporated down to the most wonderful caramel musk that lasted all day. A little of the absolute goes a very long way.
this smells most strongly of liquor to me. worn in the evening sometimes with cb's burning leaves and under the arbor.
Yes....I agree there is a hint of Crayola
and something that smells like Construction paper...recalling Elementary School days
Old Wood???
hmmmmm..not sure about that...
the Wood note is Faint ...
if it's there.....at all.
I do like it ...!!!!
The smell is sooo odd .. and peculiar....
the scent lingers then fades into more of a Coconut,Vanilla scent after a short time.
Not to sweet keeping its Masculine Esprit intact.
Wood and Books and Leather Bindings
are the furthest thing from my
imagination...
Close your eyes and give it a try.
This is a perfume with a sense of humor!
When I saw the name "In the Library" I expected something sultry and forbidden - say, Keira Knightley in Atonement. But it's just not that kind of library! The scent smells amazingly like my elementary school library: crayons, paste and old wood. I felt like I was walking those halls at age 11, past lockers and polished desks, to where my friends were waiting for me. I can't say that it's something I'd ever buy, but wearing it once brought me a lot of joy.
