Athenaeum is the distillation of a once forgotten yet fond olfactory memory, awakened upon a chance encounter at the local athenaeum. It is the fragmented and hazy reminiscence of a rural childhood found once more in the urban landscape.

Upon entering the athenaeum one is struck by the overwhelming aroma of degrading pulp and ink, shrouded in a haze of sun-kissed dust. Without haste, the smell transports you to arable mid-summer fields and days lost in swaying pastures, nose buried in hundreds of papery leaves, crops and mulchy woodland all around.

Like gauzy sunshine whistling through rugged lands, Athenaeum is as comforting as it is solitary. A fragrance crafted for reflection.

Why you'll love it

"Athenaeum", an archaic word for library or reading room, might conjure images of a dizzying accumulation of printed matter, church-high and humming with secrets. But to us, “Athenaeum” avoids comfy "old book smell" clichés. Waves of silver mist erupt from a carved beeswax fountain splashing with river water. Initially brooding, it freshens as it develops: rustic echoes of wild herbs are woven into a strangely industrial shimmer, like a chrome-plated truck running on lavender motor oil. A statement coat of scent that adds a unique fingerprint to any outfit, it's a fascinating work of art with poetry and allure in equal measure.
