Printing quality: Sticker has a couple bubbles but no big. Packaging: Well packaged Smell wise, it is mostly alcohol and pepper. I think it needs to sit for a while (maceration).

I love this scent. It is very gender neutral. It does remind me of walking into my favorite bookstore, and the smell of the printed word. It does have a hint of vanilla.

Such a beautiful scent! I call this my “nighttime” scent. I love getting in bed with a good book and having this on my skin. Totally reminds me of a library! This is my second bottle.

I really messed Whispers in the Library by Maison Margiela, and everywhere I looked said that this was the closest to it since that is discontinued. It smells wonderful and lasts all day. the fragrance is not exactly the same but it's pretty close, perhaps a bit sweeter, but close enough to make me happy. I really enjoy it's warmth which feels perfect during these cold seasons.

Really nice scent. Arrived quickly. More powdery than I expected, and leans a little masculine. I love it, perfect for fall

It’s a mature scent but not something I’d describe as ‘old lady-ish’. It smells elegant and invokes the feeling of being in an old library. I love it.

I love this. Bought a second bottle after the first wear. It’s hard to describe but it’s clean. Not in a soapy way but in a newly built house way. Not manly though. Just very good and very unique in my opinion.

About this product
Highlights

‱Subtle pepper and cedarwood middle notes evoke the charm of an old-world library.
‱Base of tonka bean and woodsy notes creates a comforting, atmospheric finish.
‱Inspired by the nostalgic smell of old books and rainy day coziness.
‱Comes in a convenient 60ML / 2 OZ size, ideal for daily use or gifting.
Product description
A scent as comforting as snuggling up in your coziest blanket while rain trickles down your bedroom window as you slowly turn the pages of your favorite book is what makes up the fragrance we call Novel. 
Subtly sweet, dry, and warmly atmospheric. The wood notes and the pepper (which is mild) combine to evoke that smell of old paper and binding glue. Meanwhile, the dusty vanilla is the beautiful fiction of this Novel that although is not sweet.  It’s the fantasy itself that is; the fantasy of whiling away the hours in some old-world library full of secluded nooks, lamps, and coziness.
