Folie À Plusieurs — Kafka on the Shore
Eau de Parfum
A spirit forest unlocked through a doorway of stone.
Access the emotional landscape and imagery of Haruki Murakami’s writings by way of nose with this fragrance that was created in response to a passage in his 2002 novel Kafka On The Shore.
“As mentioned, I want to be embalmed with this scent when I die. Many a perfume has claims to have mastered “old book smell” and to be quite honest, I personally think that while a few have come close, they have all fallen short in one form or another. Either they lost the sweetness of an old book, the muskiness, or straight up smelled like magazines off the rack from a supermarket.
Kafka on the Shore bang on smells like a favorite old book. Just the right amount of musk, the aging sweetness of the paper and glue, and the ever slight tang of aged leather. But Kafka doesn’t stop there, oh no. Behind the best old book you will ever smell in your life is a wonderfully woody, slightly powdery, and aromatic delight.” — Kori, thefandomentals
Hand-painted bottle with unique coloration and markings.
