Fragrance
Imaginary Authors Slow Explosions, Sample
Imaginary Authors Slow Explosions is a unisex fragrance meticulously crafted by brand owner and perfumer Josh Meyer. At its core, the scent weaves smooth, sensual leather with the sharp, invigorating crispness of apple, creating an intriguing contrast. The leather provides a dry, robust foundation, while the apple introduces a lively, fresh element. This dynamic interplay is further enhanced by the addition of saffron, which injects a touch of exotic warmth and subtle spice, enriching the overall composition with an unexpected twist.
As the fragrance evolves, the heart reveals a seductive rose, lending a soft, floral elegance that tempers the bold opening notes. The rose's delicate sweetness is both inviting and mysterious, offering a gentle transition between the initial burst of vibrant energy and the deeper, more complex base notes. This floral centrepiece is enveloped in a rich embrace, adding layers of complexity and allure.
In the dry-down, the fragrance settles into a comforting embrace of benzoin and cashmeran. Benzoin brings a creamy, resinous depth, imbuing the scent with a warm, balsamic richness. Cashmeran adds a touch of woody softness, rounding out the composition with a subtle, musky undertone. Together, these base notes provide the perfect foundation, leaving a lasting impression that is both highly creative and deeply alluring. Slow Explosions is an olfactory experience that captivates the senses with its innovative blend of textures and aromas.
