Hey guys! Disclaimer #1 - I had to omit 2 of the samples because the company got the labels switched up and when I filmed, the notes didn't make sense. Also: today's video was just my first impressions. That night I tried Whiff of Wafflecone out on my skin and wore it and it ended up smelling like a yummy candle to me, more of something I'd like my home to smell like verses a fragrance I'd want to wear. I hope that helps some people out! It's delicious - but I don't enjoy actually wearing it.
Based on your taste I knew you’d dislike sundrunk lol Sundrunk is honestly my favorite fragrance of all time followed by Womanity , Whiff of Waffle Cone, Memoirs of a Tresspasser, and Ombré Leather.
love yoour review, thanks for posting! at first, a city on fire was A LOT to grasp but having it sit on my wrist for a while - it aged really well and smelled very similar to by the fireplace by replica (by the fireplace gets sweeter faster, a city on fire took a bit to not smell like a campfire). why i love my samples is because all of the scents age really well and get better over time. the downside is now i'm stuck choosing between 8 fragrances
These all sound super interesting. I love what the company is trying to do with storytelling via scents, even if those are traumatic or disturbing stories (like the fire/smoke scents).
I actually really hated the salty benzoin/Amyris note in whiff of waffle cone. It’s the only one I tried from the house and I got the candle, in addition to the perfume sample, which is just ok.. I don’t enjoy it that much but the Amyris is not as strong in the candle as compared to the perfume. But yeah, wasn’t worth it to me.
I love slow explosions. It smells like roses apple and spices i don't enjoy city on fire but could be used on like a theater set a mood i hate sundrunk whiff of waffle cone is a little too sweet. They are good at soliciting feelings love your videos
Would you say memoirs is a more woody version of the atelier cologne one? Also, i’m looking for a longer lasting nirvana bourbon, I reallly love it but it doesn’t last at all on me
Yesterday Haze is my favorite from this house! It makes me feel like I'm literally walking through haze or fog made of coconut milk. 😊 Falling Into the Sea and Violet Disguise are really good ones too🥰
@@thesimplechiclife I think they've discontinued it, unfortunately🥺 I bought a bottle as soon as I heard rumors that it was being discontinued. I forgot to mention Saint Julep which is a really nice minty freshie for Summer🌞
I literally shrieked when I saw this video. I have been obsessed with the Imaginary Authors website, thinking about all the fragrances. I love your videos, and all of your recommendations! Keep up the great work!!
IA is enjoyable to smell but the scents aren’t wearable enough for me to buy any full bottles! I wasn’t a fan of Decision Decisions or A Whiff of Waffle Cone. Seems like people either love them or hate them! It’s so much fun to hear your opinions on the niche brands! Great video ❤️
I have been on that website with whiff of waffle cone in my cart so many times!! So glad you reviewed it, I am def picking it up!! Just hope I get it faster than 3 weeks 😢 Great vid!!
I tried waffle cone, mint julep, decisions decisions and falling into the sea. Waffle cone surprisingly smells like it's got burnt rose in it. Decisions decisions smells like a dirty martini with heavy olive brine to me. Of the other two, I definitely prefer the mint julep. Falling into the sea is pleasant as well. Nice reviews! Edit: it might just be my skin pH. I'm wearing M.Micaleff Notee Vanille and it pulls rose on me? I dunno🤷🏻♀️
gesture. A video and content. Imaginary Authors puts you in the realm of being imaginary and creative to interpret. What a Concept. Totally enjoyed. No Explosions or Burning for me. How creative though. Thumbs up!
Hi! what do you think about Angel Muse edt? I’ve just blind bought it! I love Muse edp and I had no chance to try the edt before buying it! I hope it’s good love your video ❤️
Normally this company ships very quickly. I get my fragrances within just a few days. However, I live in California. The problem probably was with the shipping company .
Super interesting! Sounds like a really neat company, with some curiosity-inducing scent descriptions! I first heard of Imaginary Authors about 11 months ago, now I will be looking into them more. Every storm a serenade really piqued my interest.... **tries to not impulse buy**
I loved the story of Slow Explosion so I am glad I watched this video :o I believe what you're smelling is resin and turpentine of paint. It's a very intense smell! I'm super interested in decisions, decisions, saint julep, and o unknown!
Hii I just discovered your channel! I'm very into perfume and I love that you cover niche designers in your reviews 💛💛💛 I been exclusively wearing perfumes by The Sage Lifestyle. Let me know if u ever heard of them or tried them 😀 ( I been wearing Onyx, Topaz and Coral for years) and I receieve endless compliments from all of them!!! I'm looking to build my perfume wardrobe

Out of all what would you think is a full bottle worth?
Just placed an order for some Imaginary Authors samples 10 min ago😂😂. Can t wait to hear your opinion. Ok, back to the video !😌😎
Yay!:)
Girl!! You are spoiling us with content. 🤩❤
I have so many imaginary authors!! My favorites are O, unknown and whispered myths!
For Canadian retailers that carry Imaginary Authors, Etiket is one, and so far I've had good experiences w their cust support!

I don’t dislike the Sundrunk, I just don’t think I’d buy a full bottle 😊
@@thesimplechiclife forgot to mention the dry down of city on fire smells like smoked berries on my skin. Definitely an interesting combo.
Slow explosion and a city on fire are my favorite out of the house.

This line looks so cute! It would be festive for Christmas/ Holidays. I’d like to sniff the sun drenched, the fig/Iris one, and the waffle cone.
Very strange about that shipping mishap. Enjoyed your impressions! No Cape Heartache? My favourite!
I like the sound of Yesterday Haze 🌸
Memoirs of Trespasser is my absolute favorite winter fragrance. I love it more than Replica By the fire.
it is quite lovely!! cozy and warm vanilla :)

Oooooh Waffle Cone, that sounds delicious. I absolutely love the gourmand scents. I guess I’ll have to give this one a try. Thanks for sharing 💗
It is a brown waffle cone.
Haha I just sprayed on slow explosions literally right before u reviewed it I love this one so much!
😂 I’m sorry I didn’t love it!! 💗

I have been wanting to try this house for FOREVER!!!! Thank you for this review 😍

I need to try that violet disguise - sounds interesting! :)

On shipping . . . Every time I have ordered from them my order has come REALLY fast and well packed.

The D20 on the bottle in every storm serenade.. my inner nerd just screamed! I have to check this house out 🤓
Never heard of Imaginary Author's fragrances. These sound interesting. Feeling tempted
They look good
I would like to try the two that you like best 🍦 📚🙂

Thank you Pattie 💗
These really seem like they would work better as home fragrances
Super unrelated to the video, but do you know what color polish you had on? It's so pretty!
Thank you so much - I don't recall unfortunately. I usually do share the nail polish color in my videos though :)
Have you tried Cape Heartache?
no I haven't!
Great, honest reviews Ilythia!
Thank you!!:) 💗
Hi! what do you think about Angel Muse edt?
I’ve just blind bought it! I love Muse edp and I had no chance to try the edt before buying it! I hope it’s good
love your video ❤️
Wiff of Waffle Cone is one of my next purchases
I'm thinking maybe pyromaniacs would love city on fire 😂 waffle cone sounds great!
I was waiting for this review... thank u 🙏
Normally this company ships very quickly.

The problem probably was with the shipping company .
Email the company and they should file a claim so you can get your damaged bottle replaced.

Every storm a serenade really piqued my interest.... **tries to not impulse buy**
I live in California. It came in three days.
City on fire is it's a dumpster fire 🔥Saint Julep is a good one.
Waffle Cone smells like maple syrup to me, along with an odd synthetic plastic note. I wouldn't buy a full bottle. Great review video!
To me it smelled like syrup mixed with pine wood. I tried to like it but couldn't . Glad I just purchased the sample.
Great video. Thanks
The company is in Portland, Oregon..quite literally the city is on fire and being destroyed by some of the residents.
Enough said.
A city on fire would be good for fireman since that is what they do.
yes it really would haha. :)
I loved the story of Slow Explosion so I am glad I watched this video :o I believe what you're smelling is resin and turpentine of paint. It's a very intense smell!

hahaha that first one sounds really weird
It was lol 😬 lol:)

It must be a trial to be around this person.
