A scent as comforting as snuggling up in your coziest blanket while rain trickles down your bedroom window as you slowly turn the pages of your favorite book is what makes up the fragrance we call Novel. 

Subtly sweet, dry, and warmly atmospheric. The wood notes and the pepper (which is mild) combine to evoke that smell of old paper and binding glue. Meanwhile, the dusty vanilla is the beautiful fiction of this Novel that although is not sweet.  It’s the fantasy itself that is; the fantasy of whiling away the hours in some old-world library full of secluded nooks, lamps, and coziness.

Saved My Memories

This was exactly what I was looking for. The perfume this is based on (Replica's "Whispers in the Library") has been my signature scent since it was launched and I have many beautiful, important memories connected to it. It was discontinued this year and the sealed bottle I'd purchased last year to savour had already turned sour in the package.

Devastated, I started looking for alternatives and found this. It is identical after it develops! I'm so, so happy with this purchase and will absolutely be buying again.

Please, please never discontinue this scent! Thank you!

Spicy, doesn’t last

I don’t know what I was expecting, but it does not smell like the “essence” of a library. It starts out spicy, then it doesn’t really smell like anything.

My new signature scent

This perfume definitely smells more woodsy overall, but beyond that you do get the sweet vanilla notes and there is warmth and depth to it. It is strong and I wouldn't use more than a spray but if you give it some time to develop it isn't overpowering. Definitely wearing this every single date night

Fragrance fits me perfectly

I ordered Novel based on the fragrance notes and am thrilled with this purchase. It is "me" to a T. There's a smoky undertone with vanilla and musk. Every time I wear it someone asks me what it is. I then sing ALT's praises. I will continue to try different fragrances and can't wait for the next payday to buy more! Thank you for such wonderful products.
