Imaginary Authors A Whiff of Waffle Cone is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2020, created by Josh Meyer. A Whiff of Waffle Cone settles into a heart of Cream, Maple, Amyris, and Cinnamon. Imaginary Authors's A Whiff of Waffle Cone carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This is a serious maple syrup bomb, full stop. Utterly divisive, you'll either adore smelling like a gourmet breakfast or find it cloying and even burnt. Beast mode performance means you're committing to that vibe.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

Date

Given its potent sweet accords and beast-mode longevity and sillage, 'A Whiff of Waffle Cone' is much too overwhelming for an office or formal setting. It's best suited for casual outings, especially in cooler weather, though some find it intriguing enough for a playful, unconventional date scent.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Other declarable allergens

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Imagine a rich, syrupy blast of pure maple, dusted generously with warm cinnamon. Underneath that dominant sweetness, there's a comforting layer of vanilla and creamy caramel, creating a dense, almost boozy gourmand experience. It's sticky, sweet, and leans heavily into baked goods rather than a light, airy waffle cone.
