Between dust, silence and forgotten pages

Imaginary Authors unveils The Abandoned Mansion, a fragrance that captures the silence of forgotten rooms and the poetry of dust-covered shelves. It is a scent that turns melancholy into a narrative, where every note feels like a page in an abandoned book.
Olfactive Pyramid
Top Notes: Cedar, Quince, Petitgrain
Heart Notes: Pimento Berry
Base Notes: Oakmoss, Ambreine, “Paperbacks” (old books accord)
The composition begins with the clarity of cedar and the restrained fruitiness of quince, lifted by the green bitterness of petitgrain. This opening feels like pushing open heavy windows to let air and light into a place closed for decades. In the heart, the warmth of pimento berry interrupts the silence with a soft spice, adding life and tension to the structure. Finally, the base grounds the fragrance with the earthy dampness of oakmoss, the resinous glow of ambreine, and the unmistakable accord of paperbacks, which evokes yellowed pages, forgotten libraries, and the intimacy of a life left behind.

The Abandoned Mansion is discreet yet enveloping. It does not seek to dominate the space but rather to whisper, accompanying the wearer like a secret presence. Best suited for colder seasons and quiet moments of reflection, it is a fragrance for those who appreciate perfumes that tell stories instead of shouting statements.
We have seen this novelty highlighted on Ashod’s page, which first drew our attention to this evocative launch.
