Imaginary Authors

What's not to love about Josh Meyer's quirky, literary-inspired unisex fragrances? Based in Portland, OR, Imaginary Authors is one of indie perfume's most adored lines. Each fragrance tells a unique story using unexpected materials that are delightful and captivating on skin. An international cult favorite, and one of ours too.
