Yesterday Haze - eau de parfum

Yesterday Haze by Imaginary Authors is a warm, creamy fragrance with fig and iris.
This perfume surely does have that hazy quality; the opening is fruity and slightly “dusty” (perhaps its the iris?), but it soon envelops into a creamy fig and iris scent while tonka beans add depth without becoming sweet. Dream away, folks!

Imaginary Authors’ inspiration:
“Yesterday Haze,” the subtly sinister follow-up to Lenora Blumberg’s acclaimed debut “Violet Disguise,” tells the story of a farmer’s wife who, after maintaining a decades-long affair with a crop duster pilot, decides to come clean to her husband (who also happens to be her lover’s employer). “The memory of him is a rifle in my mouth,” Blumberg wrote, “and the scent of fig its trigger.” Set in California’s tranquil and dusty San Joaquin Valley, the elaborate tale unfolds like a dream, delicately shifting perceptions like the colors of a dimming dusk.

The stories about the fragrances from Imaginary Authors are pieces of art in themselves. Compelling, with the necessary drama, romance, and plot twists the stories exist parallel to the perfumes. Perfumer Josh Meyer makes the scents first, after which he and his creative director Ashod Simonian form the texts. They let themselves be inspired by the stories the fragrances and ingredients tell them. This way, they come up with playful ingredients, such as 'first kiss' in Sundrunk.
