Imaginary Authors Whispered Myths is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017. Whispered Myths settles into a heart of Cambodian Oud, Cedar, Oud, and Melon, and dries down to a base of Driftwood and Honey. Imaginary Authors's Whispered Myths carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a proper divisive beast. You'll either fall head over heels for its dusty, unique character or you'll be running for the hills. Definitely not a safe blind buy, but bold enough to be iconic for some.

About

Whispered Myths opens with an unexpected, almost juicy cantaloupe note, quickly giving way to a dry, complex woody core. Imagine an ancient library, full of cedar and oud, where the air is thick with the scent of old paper and dust, perhaps with a hint of something faintly animalic or a forgotten honeyed sweetness in the background. It's a journey from fresh fruit, through dark, resonant wood, to a mysteriously damp, earthy drydown that evokes forgotten places and untold stories.
