Imaginary Authors

Imaginary Authors is an independent American perfumery built around a playful concept: each scent is framed as a “lost” book, complete with fictional titles and narrative backstories. Founded in 2012, the brand pairs imaginative storytelling with distinctive, often unexpected note combinations, making the line feel like a collection of short stories in fragrance form. The overall style leans creative and characterful—designed to spark memory and mood—while remaining approachable enough to wear day to day.
