Imaginary Authors
The Story of the Brand
Imaginary Authors has one mission: to evoke memories and inspire new ones. By pairing innovative scents with stories, the house awakens memories you had long forgotten. Every scent is packaged as a book, with a fictional author and a synopsis that reaches from Naples to Madagascar and from Texas to the Danish coast.
The Signature of the House
Classic materials such as iris, oud, saffron and vanilla, combined with imaginative accords that bring a scene to life. The bottles are simple and rectangular, with labels designed as book covers.

Why Fragrance Has No Gender
In the world of niche perfumery, experience matters more than categories.
Many niche houses do not create their fragrances for men or for women. They tell a story, recall a memory or bring an emotion to life. The scent comes first, not the gender of the person wearing it.
At ParfuMaria we believe fragrance has no gender. Every scent unfolds in its own way through the natural chemistry of your skin, so the same perfume can smell surprisingly different on two people.
So try not to be guided too much by labels such as feminine, masculine or unisex. The most beautiful fragrance is the one in which you recognise yourself and which you enjoy wearing.
A fragrance does not choose a gender. A fragrance chooses a personality.
What the ParfuMaria Team Thinks About This Brand
A fragrance wardrobe from Imaginary Authors feels like your own bookcase, with a story for every mood.
