A WHIFF OF WAFFLE CONE – Eau de Parfum

Imaginary Authors - A WHIFF OF WAFFLE CONE - Eau de Parfum

A WHIFF OF WAFFLE CONE by Imaginary Authors is a fragrance that captures the complexity and warmth of a sinfully delicious experience and is as seductive as a luxurious scoop of ice cream from Salt & Straw. This highly wearable fragrance is a tribute to indulgence and desire - a warning up front: it could cause a queue to form, so desirable does it make its wearer.

The fragrance notes combine to create an olfactory symphony of seduction: vanilla and salted caramel form the sweet, tantalizing base, while Saigon cinnamon adds a spicy depth that grounds the fragrance. Heavy cream lends a creamy, almost tactile texture that makes the composition rich and inviting. Sandalwood adds a woody, mild base that lends a serious, calming note to the sweetness. Orgeat, a sweet almond syrup, rounds off the bouquet with a subtle nuttiness. Orgeat is a sweet syrup traditionally made from almonds, sugar and rose or orange blossom water.

Originally from the Mediterranean region, orgeat has a long history and is now used worldwide in cooking and cocktail making, especially in classic drinks such as the Mai Tai or the Momisette. The production of Orgeat typically begins with soaking almonds in water to soften them. The almonds are then ground and mixed with sugar and water before the rose or orange blossom water is added to give the syrup its characteristic aroma. The result is a milky white liquid with a rich, nutty taste and a hint of floral aroma.

Orgeat is more than just a syrup; it is a cultural heritage that carries the history and traditions of the Mediterranean and lives on in modern gastronomy and cocktail culture. Finally, the mysterious accord “Scoop Shop” captures the unique ambience of an ice cream parlor and completes the fragrance with an irresistible invitation to indulge.

The story behind A WHIFF OF WAFFLE CONE is as captivating as the fragrance itself - it tells of an ice cream store with mysterious powers that transports its visitors to different stages of life with the scent of freshly baked waffle cones. This journey through four generations of a family and the deep connections within a community weaves a message of hope and cohesion that is captivating in its honesty and truthfulness. Far from expected saccharine sweetness, the story offers an honest and authentic range of voices that make it a treasured coming-of-age tale you'll want to return to again and again.
