Imaginary Authors 2025 EDT
A Little Secret
Imaginary Authors A Little Secret is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2025. A Little Secret opens with Saffron and Cherry, settles into a heart of Sweet Pastry, Sugar Cane, and Almond, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Tonka Bean, and Rum. Imaginary Authors's A Little Secret carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.
This isn't just a cherry perfume; it's a divisive, complex beast, equal parts nostalgic warmth and an unsettling, almost Lynchian oddity. Some get syrupy pie, others a quirky, artificial cherry with a smoky, boozy edge. Expect compliments, but also expect to confuse a few noses.What our verdicts mean →

Profile
Composition
Timeline
Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Best Occasions
Its strong, sweet, and boozy character makes it far too bold for the office or formal events but perfect for dates. The gourmand warmth and intriguing complexity suit casual or evening wear, especially in cooler weather, where its performance can truly shine.
