Chapter One

Small Indian bookstores have a special place in our hearts because they stand as timeless havens of the analog in an increasingly digital world. The artistry of cover designs, the crisp sound of a spine cracking open, and the inexplicably unique combination of aromas from aged books, fresh ink and crisp paper—all these elements contribute to an experience that transcends the sterile efficiency of the digital realm

Using a delicate blend of sandalwood, leather, tobacco, cardamom, orris, aldehyde and muguet as our hero ingredients, we aim to share our interpretation of the enduring Indian independent bookstore.

Mysore Sandalwood, a rare fragrant wood native to India, is threatened by over-harvestation and climate change. To support its preservation and recreate its alluring aroma, we have utilized DREAMWOOD® in our fragrances. DREAMWOOD® is produced by white biotechnology through a fermentation process using sustainable and renewable feedstock of Mysore Sandalwood.

Additionally, this fragrance utilizes upcycled Cedarwood and Cypriol essential oils.
