Book-
I love the black tea note in this one, which is why it’s become my favourite of the Book scent space variants. After that initial burst, Book- is primarily a woody scent. There is also an underlying hint of eucalyptus which I really enjoy, adding a clean, camphorous, almost “green” undertone. As it develops the musk becomes more predominant, which adds a cosy edge to an otherwise fresh and crisp fragrance.

I would say projection and longevity are both moderate. I’ve had several compliments on this one so other people can definitely smell it, but it’s by no means overpowering. To me this is a unisex, year-round daytime fragrance, perfect for when you want to be a little understated.

Not as bookish as I'd like
Fresh and spicy herbal scent, I don't really get much wood from this, apart from maybe several hours later. Leans masculine to my nose -- reminds me of my dad, who wears Dior Sauvage. For a brief moment if I really engaged my imagination I could smell an old musty book, but that quickly went, and I don't particularly want to smell like a musty book, anyways.

Book-
Reminds me of: Walking through the top floor of the Last Bookstore in downtown Los Angeles in the middle of summer. I’m reading the back of a detective novel as a handsome stranger passes close enough for their scent to linger in the thick summer air, blending with the smells of the old building, the book pages and dust.

This is definitely one of my favourites in the personal scent space samples I have tried, even though it’s hard to choose as they have all been delicious. Commodity has really hit the nail on the head with Book-. It’s soft, sensual, personal; like curling up with a good book or a lover. This is definitely something I would want to reach for on a date night. I like it more than Velvet- as a sensual scent because I do lean more towards wood notes than florals these days. It’s a very personal skin musk scent but with depth. I could not gush about this one more. Just try it, I promise you’ll love it.

Fresh, modern woods, with herbal notes
Book- starts with an herbal, slightly spicy black tea note, opens to a sandalwood heart, and dries down to a stunning cedar and skin musk base. It's very fresh and clean, feels modern rather than dated, and lets the wood notes take center stage. Though it's based around the notes from Book Expressive, it's very much its own thing, staying close to the skin and opening into a more woodsy, intimate feel. This is a book you're reading in a cozy cabin in the woods, on a quiet vacation where no one's asking you to get up and climb a mountain; your teacup is at your side, and the blanket over your legs is soft and fire-warmed.

Smells just like a bookstore but a little greener. Maybe the window is open and there's a soft breeze. Beautiful.

Sandalwood and Ambroxan are arm wrestling, tea + eucalyptus aren’t up for stress + leave early. Art wood club.

Reading in the cabin next to the herb garden? First green + herbal, smells like dill. Then artificial sandalwood + a bit of smoke. Masculine.

Spicy, minimal, with a bergamot-tangy start leading into a soothing sandalwood cream, a light smoky note accompanies everything. It really reminds me of books.

Pleasantly refreshing (initially a bit fresh-cucumber-like) and transparently woody. In the drydown, a subtle woody sweetness can be sensed. I really like it!

Black tea, paired with herbal woody notes, evokes the sense of a bound old book. Intriguingly crafted and not overpowering.
