There’s a certain magic in the air when the seasons turn and the school library transforms into a treasure trove of glittery bookmarks, scratch-and-sniff stickers, and glossy paperback dreams. You clutch your paper order form like a map to secret wonders, the scent of sharpened pencils and freshly cracked spines mingling with the faint sweetness of lunchbox apples and something warm, familiar—like soft dough and stories yet to be told. Book Fair is a cozy exhale of childhood enchantment, where imagination lingers in every page.

So fun and nostalgic
I wasn’t sure how pencil shavings would come through in a perfume but here we are! This is such a unique fragrance and I’m totally obsessed with it. I only wish that the apple scent lasted a little longer, to me it dries down to just the sharp woody smell of the books/pencil shavings and the warmth of the cashmere musk (which I didn’t think I’d like but I love). The day this perfume came in the mail I immediately ordered a discovery set of more scents. I can tell seller is now my go-to for fragrances! 🫶
Smells like fresh apple slices, glossy paperback books and cashmere musk. It smells like the nicest teacher you've ever had. I love it more than I expected to!
So unexpected and unique! It really grows on you, and now it's my favorite scent ever!
This scent is really nice. It smells like freshly sliced sweet apples with a hint of iso super at the end. Unfortunately for my nose, I don't detect any of the other notes like "play clay" or erasers, I would have LOVED that. But regardless, it's definitely unique. My son, who almost never comments on my cornucopia of scents, immediately noticed it and liked it. My husband LOVES IT! the sillage is medium I'd say. Unfortunately, it doesn't last quite as long as I'd like. It's not a scent that immediately disappears, but it is nearly gone in 4 hours or so. Overall a really great choice.
Let customers speak for us
from 81 reviewssmells super good! its def more vanilla and a very round sent, but i would definitely wear to a tea party 100%
This smells wonderful!
It really does smell like the bottom of a Halloween trick or treat bucket. I didn’t think I would like the fruitiness but it really grew on me! I only wish that the scent was a little stronger and lasted longer, but maybe that’s just because I got the oil roller and not the atomizer. Great scent!
Perfect fall vibes scent
Smells amazing and feels wonderful on my lips!
Noce presentation, packaged well, delightful scents.
Packaged well, cute bottles, very nice presentation and smells.
This perfume has become one of my all-time favorites, it smells so comforting and warm. I wear this as often as I can!
My favorite tinted lip balm! Not too much color and it goes on like silk!
I absolutely love this sent! It’s not over powering like most other perfumes are. It’s just right to where you get a light sent through out the day without needing a second spray. I will definitely be returning when I need a new bottle!
I loved being able to buy samples, everything sounded so good and it helped me make a decision. Each scent smelled so good.
Beautiful cozy fall in a bottle. The spice really stands out and the aged oak moss ties it all together perfectly
I initially received a set of leaky atomizers, with several half empty upon arrival and the rest coated in perfume. Tara was incredibly kind in offering me a replacement set and it arrived very quickly and in perfect condition.
The scents are absolutely delicious. London fog is everything I hoped it would be and I’m constantly sniffing my wrists trying to get more of it lol. I’m also fond of fairy frosting—I was worried about the bubblegum note but I’ve found it isn’t too strong or offensive at all :)
I have been looking for the perfect warm and enticing spice-smell for the longest time and this perfume is it! To me it smells like honey, cinnamon, vanilla, but others might get different notes depending on how your body chemistry works with it. The packaging was adorable. I will definitely be trying other scents as well!
