Book of Curses
This is the smell of finding a leather bound book from medieval times. You pull it off the old handmade wooden bookcase and set it down on the matching wooden long table. You blow on the cover and the thick layer of dust makes it into the air, causing you to cough. The spine cracks as you open the book and the pages are swollen, almost moldy, from years of exposure to moisture. The pages might even be vellum. Even thought this book is ancient, the ink on it seems almost fresh. There is something not normal about this book.

This is a dry scent, no sweetness to be found. Its peppery wood, leather, and slightly humid. This is one of the best and most realistic book smells I've tried. If you think Book by Commodity is too tame, then this is the scent you are looking for.

This fragrance is lightly aromatic. If you want people to think you own a bookstore that specializes in rare editions or work in a library that hold ancient texts, this is the fragrance to wear. This fragrance lasted about 4 hours on my skin. There is one size available, 30ml for $120. A pretty heft price but this a perfect scent for any book lover.

Like stumbling upon an attic filled with leather bound 19th century books that's been sealed up for 30 years. Incredibly dusty leather.
