Unique and Pleasant
Influenced by Gerard Way to get this, like I see others have been too! I've actually been wanting to buy a scent that reminded me of books recently, so I'm glad I stumbled upon this. It's really strange, I've never smelled anything like it. I mostly smell colored ink and glossy paper, which reminds me of new comics, which is very fitting. It has this spice to it that's pleasant. It's so unique and I never would have thought to try it but I'm glad I did. It's also very affordable. I like that it's not a huge bottle, which means I could theoretically actually use it all before it expires. I could easily slip it in my bag as well. It lasts for a while and can be pretty intense, so if you're looking for a subtle scent this isn't it. Even a while after I apply I'm not completely nose-blind to it. That's nice though, because I like lasting scents. I do think the atomizer isn't the best, I personally prefer a finer mist. But again, the price point wins. Overall, I like it and will likely buy a new bottle when mine runs out.

Quite nice, a bit of a minty smell
Quite nice perfume for the price to be honest. Kind of a minty scent with a hint of tobacco which is not a very bad scent. The bottle does smell a bit like booze but, then again, I personally don't mind it. Overall quite a nice perfume and the bottle seems to be quite strong seeming that the delivery driver threw my package over my very tall fence instead of just sitting it on the outside of the fence

Not a dupe for Book Loft
If you want a scent similar to B&BW Book Loft this is not it. Paperback is okay, it smells like vanilla pipe tobacco to me. Definaltey unisex. It fades off within a couple of hours which is expected with a $25 perfume.

Yeah. I have never bought cologne before but I purchased one bottle and it’s been six months, I apply like 6 spritzes every week day and I am not even halfway done with the bottle. Totally solid for the price. The scent sticks pretty well but isn’t so strong that you have a musk cloud around you.

delicate product
Love the scent, it’s soft and clean but musky and slightly weird, but the bottle design is not the best, since the bottle sprayer can be taken off it came off and most of it had already leaked when i opened the box

Smells Like Stale Coconut Husks
This smells like old, stale coconut husks and not at all like books. And since it's not returnable, I'm leaving a poor review instead.

DUDE. GROSS. My partner summed it up best when he walked into where I'd tested it: "Jee-ZUS! Did a really, really old lady fart out her soul in here?" I read the reviews and decided to take the risk, if it did come through to me like old book I'd have been thrilled. I'm one of those people who have a particularly good sense of smell, super-taster or whatever. My olfactory sense is impressive, and I always think if I hadn't taken up smoking as a kid I might be able to work for companies that need trained tasters and a complex flavor references. It is pretty cool and yeah I'm bragging a little, but it wasn't so much a gift as a horrible, horrible curse when smelling this monstrosity. So I don't always get the basic thing most people go for, I can pick up on different notes and layers of a lot of scents. And of course, smell is so subjective. If you try it, it may be the same product I received, but we will experience it differently. That might help you get something out of it that you enjoy. Obviously some people will luck out and experience the scent as enjoyable. This smells gross to me though! Really really gross.. What hits first is a kind of musty old lady perfume, followed by a heavy baby powder smell. Then the heavy musk undertone of the old lady perfume hits. Once it lingers for a while--and oh boy does it linger, believe that!--it still retains the powder/musky perfume smell, but what really, really lasts are the gas station bathroom air freshener elements. And it wouldn't smell good there either. 1/10 Would not recommend. However, again, smells are subjective and your senses are different from mine, different from your neighbors', different from your partner's. If you just want to know, like I did, give it a try. If you're missing that second hand bookstore smell, that wood pulp and old ink and the ghost of cigarette smoke and the very soft, subtle smell of the words being read, uh...I don't know that *anyone* would get that. If you're looking for a really retro powdery 'White Shoulders and Meemaw in a Valero bathroom' smell you're in luck! And I've read the recommendation that Demeter perfumes be considered more of a novelty not meant to be worn but enjoyed on something besides your body, I tried. Some good napkins and a hand towel were definitely harmed in the testing of this product. Also, I am aware that not all old ladies smell like baby powder, faded and crumbling prom dress memories and pee and I don't mean to stereotype. However "Old Lady Perfume" is a description that many people will understand.
