A forgotten house deep in the woods, where autumn light filters through dusty windows and stacks of old books have sat untouched for years. The Abandoned Mansion by Imaginary Authors captures that atmosphere in a warm, woody scent with a nostalgic edge.
Dry cedarwood sits at its heart, brightened by a touch of quince and petitgrain. Allspice adds a soft warmth, while oakmoss and ambreine settle into an earthy, glowing base. A subtle hint of old paper completes the story. Unisex, and at its best in autumn and winter. For those drawn to scents with character and a tale to tell.
Synopsis
Aimless twenty-somethings Calvin and Millie didn’t mean to drop off the face of the earth but when they stumbled onto an abandoned mansion while hiking in the Adirondacks, that’s just what they did. Lounging in the autumn light and lost among the stacks of paperbacks they decided to weather the winter in their found fortress. Spring brought hordes of wildlife, both indoors and out, but no sign of other humans (other than the one growing in Millie’s belly). It would be another four years before the burgeoning family would be forced out of their assumed home but they don’t plan to leave without putting up a fight.
