in the library

December 4th, 2006  |  Published in books  |  3 Comments

Here’s the scenario: You’re looking for love, but all the people you’ve dated aren’t quite bookish enough. You want to save time and weed out the non book folks early on. Or, maybe there’s a hot librarian you want to seduce. Fortunately for you, there’s a new fragrance called In The Library:

English Novel taken from a Signed First Edition of one of my very favorite novels, Russian & Moroccan leather bindings, worn cloth and a hint of wood polish.

You might be laughing, but I think the home spray version is tempting. (via Talking in the Library)

    Well, smells do serve as strong reminders. For example, whenever I smell Calvin Klein Eternity, I think of my husband, who used to wear that fragrance when we first met. So, a fragrance that smells like books could only serve as a wonderful olfactory reminder for those who love books! If you do buy this fragrance, please let me know what you and your boyfriend think of it! I’m very curious.

    I took the Rock Chick quiz after seeing it on your site. I’m Tori Amos (Creative. Ambitious. Strong-willed.). :)
