Fresh neroli orange flowers and heliotrope blossoms pressed between the delicate paper pages of a leather-bound book.

"And all I love is here : old books, fresh flowers.

My books are tombs where wit and wisdom sleep,

Stored full with treasure of the long ago ;
My tender buds, that dews of springtide steep.

Like shining mirrors of the future show.
The present is so sad ! . . . . this dark to-day

Like skies with thunder charged above us lowers :
Ah ! of the past — the future — speak always.

Tell me of naught but these .... old books, fresh
flowers."

-- Graham R. Tomson (Rosamund Marriott Watson)

Greate mix of old and fresh

Truly it smells like walking into a really old second hand bookstore that has run by a grandma who has too much potpourri in her house. It does a good job of mixing the old mustier smell with the fresh floral scent.

The bottle feels good quality but the spray doesn't smell the same as the sample. I'm trying not to be too disappointed since I know they are in different solutions, but it's a lot more orange-forward rather than heliotrope which is really what I loved. Still enjoying it, just not to the same level.
