What we are
The Library of Fragrance consists consists of over 300 different fragrances inspired by everyday objects and experiences. In short, we are the olfactory version of “stopping to smell the roses”. We isolate and highlight the beautiful scents that surround us every day, in wearable formats.
Why so many different scents? Because our sense of smell triggers our strongest emotional response, choosing and wearing a LOF fragrance is a personal expression of that emotional response. That makes The Library of Fragrance the only fragrance house that is all about the user, and not about the designer. There is no fashion to aspire to, or lifestyle to step into. Your choice of one of our fragrances is all about you.
That doesn’t mean you should be giving up your designer and prestige fragrances; some of them are truly fabulous. But there is so much more to the power and beauty of scent than complex and big fragrances.
Christopher Brosius, founder
“A person’s fragrance “wardrobe” should include more than just designer or classic perfumes. Having a fragrance wardrobe of just designer perfumes is like having a wardrobe of nothing but evening clothes – beautiful but not what you might want for everyday life. You need the comfortable clothes as well.”
Who we are
The Library of Fragrance is a family owned and operated business. We try and extend that passionate and caring dynamic to all our fans, as part of the extended LOF family.
All Library of Fragrance products are made in our Pennsylvania factory and are stocked in the UK or your respective region.
All The Library of Fragrance products are either made by hand or manufactured semi-automatically and finished by hand. All fragrances are batched by hand.
Cannabis Flower
At The Library of Fragrance, we do not involve ourselves with the politics, but with the beautiful scent of the Cannabis Flower. Slightly floral, slightly spicy, but unmistakably Cannabis, this fragrance has a deep and penetrating beauty. Cannabis is the most durable of the hemp plants, and it produces the toughest cloth, called `canvass.' Canvass…
Butterscotch
Smooth, buttery and rich, this warm and delectable blend is in the best The Library of Fragrance gourmand tradition. The primary ingredients in Butterscotch are brown sugar and butter. According to "Housewife's Corner" in an 1848 newspaper, the real recipe for "making Doncaster butterscotch is one pound of butter, one pound of sugar and a…
Mango
This fragrance is really subtle and fruity, fresh not syrupy or overly sweet. It makes us want to go back to Cozumel. Now! Mangoes are one of the most popular tropical fruits. It's been grown in India since before 2000 B.C.. In fact, in Indian Vedic literature the Mango is spoken of as a blessed…
Great Barrier Reef
The Great Barrier Reef is actually a complex of coral reefs, shoals and islets off the northeastern coast of Australia. Many are dry, and others barely awash in water. Some of the islands are covered in coral sand. It is that unique aspect, the combination of the warm Pacific Ocean and the powdery, sweet-scented coral…
Mimosa
Mimosa is anchored by a heart of mimosa absolute. It is just the beginning of an olfactory voyage that runs through notes of basil, ylang ylang, jasmine, vanilla and tonka bean, offering meandering side excursions that delight the senses and spiral. All without ever losing the Mimosa Absolute center.
Twilight Orchid
The heart of this sensuous fragrance is red ginger orchid and midnight orchid, balanced by warm amber and oud wood. While the focus is on the Twilight Orchid, this complex, yet linear blend includes yuza, pink grapefruit and jasmine, making it lighter, fuller and more complete and wearable anytime. Twilight orchids, interesting enough, are usually…
