The Language of Glaciers
Regular price $ 105.00The Language of Glaciers by Imaginary Authors starts with a cold blast of minty pine and a hint of petrichor, reminiscent of a wintery drive through the Sierra mountains. The softness of fresh snow is imagined in powdery lilac and the impression of frosted blue flowers. Window open, cashmere on.
From Imaginary Authors
“Let’s do marvelous things, says the glacier, sit with me and consider the magnitude of what we are capable of.” - Margaux Zweig
The Story
Have you ever stood alone atop a mountain with chunky snowflakes swirling all around? Such is the splendor you will experience within The Language of Glaciers, a romantic epic that reaches incredible heights and inspires one to leave no moment unappreciated. From the stillness of a moonlit snowshoe excursion to the rush of witnessing an avalanche safely from above, the recollections of our unnamed narrator will captivate you the same way the solitary song of the snow owl captivated them. Find comfort in the cold and begin to see the world from stunning new perspectives. Critics have called it “A slow-paced story that will burrow straight to the center of your soul” and “Sharp as ice and smooth as a glacial lake.”
When to Wear
Finally, a fragrance for the introverts. This is not to say you can’t wear it out but it will act like a trusted parka when you do, enveloping you in grandeur and wonder.
Perfumer
Josh Meyer
