Firefly
The Library of Fragrance Firefly seeks to capture the essence of an early northeastern spring evening at dusk, the smells associated with that magical night when the first fireflies of the year appear. And the memories. That mayo jar Mom gave you with the holes punched in the lid…but the truth be told, this was…
Fireplace
The method of using wood for heating homes and offices is almost as old as dirt. It was during the Victorian era, however, when fireplaces started gaining popularity. During that time, people felt that in addition to the production of heat, fireplaces added a touch of class, providing homes a cozy, quaint environment. Over the…
First Kiss
Until now, First Kiss has only been available in Korea.

Flowering Tonka
Reminiscent of rich vanilla with touches of cinnamon, saffron, almond and clove, the journey of the humble Tonka bean into a staple of perfumery began in 1793, when cultivation of this native South American plant began in France as a tropical tree with beautiful purple flowers, each containing one wrinkled, black bean. Demeter's Flowering Tonka…
Frankincense
The Library of Fragrance Frankincense is a full, rich, woody, spicy expression of a classic fragrance note. So classic, that the Bible mentions it as one of the three types of gifts the wise men gave to the baby Jesus. Frankincense is tapped from the scraggly but hardy Boswellia sacra trees by slashing the bark, which…
Fraser Fir
Our whole idea is to smell the trees for the forest. They each smell different, and very good. Fraser fir was named for John Fraser (1750-1811), a Scottish botanist who explored the southern Appalachian Mountains in the late 18th century. In many respects, Fraser fir and Balsam fir are quite similar, although the geographic ranges…

Frozen Pond
Inspired by the 2010 Winter Olympics, the striking simplicity of Frozen Pond enhances its inherent loveliness. Just water, earth and cold.

Funeral Home
Funeral Home is a blend of classic white flowers including lilies, carnations, gladiolus, chrysanthemums with stems and leaves, with a hint of mahogany and oriental carpet. This scent actually started out to be Flower Show. However, our founding perfumer personally did NOT like most white flowers so this was a tough fragrance for him to…
Fuzzy Navel
The smoothest fuzzy navel you'll ever experience, The Library of Fragrance Fuzzy Navel cocktail is a fresh and fruity combination of peach schnapps, vodka and orange juice. In the mid-1980's, the Fuzzy Navel became something of a cult drink in the Midwest, and a rallying point for young drinkers. This struck us as a phenomenon…

Geranium
This is scent of the leaves of the scented Geranium. Geranium Bourbon, is a sometimes hard-to-get oil that comes mostly from Reunion Island via Cairo, a big marketer of essential oils.
