Fragrance Notes

Notes: Library books, orris absolute, marshmallow, decalepis hamiltonii absolute*, carrot seed, sandalwood, fallen leaves

 

What It Smells Like

English Major opens with a dry, paper-like “library books” accord that feels slightly powdery, woody, and intellectual in character. Carrot seed adds a faint earthy-spicy nuance that gives the opening a natural dryness.

As it develops, orris absolute introduces a soft, powdery floral tone with a cosmetic-like smoothness. Marshmallow adds a light gourmand sweetness that softens the sharper edges, while Decalepis Hamiltonii absolute contributes a subtle herbal-woody complexity that keeps the composition grounded.

In the dry down, sandalwood provides a smooth, creamy woody base. The fallen leaves accord adds a dry, slightly earthy autumnal tone, reinforcing the impression of aged paper, wood, and seasonal decay.

Overall, the fragrance feels dry, powdery, and softly sweet with a blend of woody, earthy, and lightly gourmand elements that evoke a quiet, contemplative atmosphere.
