The Story

When to wear this fragrance

With a decadent complexity and warmth, this extremely wearable scent will make you as desirable as a luxurious scoop from Salt & Straw. Don’t blame us if a line forms.

Synopsis

More of a Howdtheydoit than a Whodunnit this magical tale will sweep you back to simpler times and envelop you in a warm blanket of nostalgia. At the center of the novel is an ice cream shoppe with mysterious powers. Upon entering, customers are hit with a marvelous and magical aroma which immediately transports them to different periods of their life. Ping-ponging through four generations of rich family history and tender community connections, a narrative emerges that threads a message of endurance and togetherness unlike any other. And rather than dipping into an expected sugary sweetness, the melange of voices rings honest and true, making this a highly respected coming-of-age story you’ll want to revisit again and again.

Cowritten with Salt & Straw, a pioneering ice cream brand based in Portland, Oregon with outposts across the country.

The House

Imaginary Authors treats fragrance the way it treats books — it never made sense to own just one. The house conjures memory through scent, building a bookshelf of perfumes for any mood, occasion, or season. Each scent comes with its own title, year, and author — a piece of fiction you wear instead of read.
