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.

As someone who currently works in an elementary school, it really does envoke that old classroom and library. it's so so comforting
Smells amazing! To my nose it almost smells like going to the post office, like a nice paper-ey scent. I love it so much!!

Each scent I receive is such a beautiful wearable quirky fragrance. I want to collect them all.
I had been looking for the perfect fall perfume and I found it with Cottage Witch. Its scent notes are truly delicious and invokes the spirit of Halloween season. But it has a complexity that doesn't feel like your wearing a fall scented candle. It has a very mature scent with a touch of whimsy. Just adore this scent so much!
Such a beautiful, complex fragrance! On my skin, it starts off with the beautiful lemon curd note which is supported by a beautiful creamy feel. This then moves to those beautiful, slightly savoury pistachio macaron notes, with the chocolate singing in the background. I think the cucumber stays all through the wear, which I really enjoy, I’m just not sure which note it is which creates a slight savoury effect.
Love this and would recommend if you are a fan of the notes as you will definitely smell them!
I absolutely love this
I purchased based on the spice notes and knew it would be perfect for the fall weather. If anyone is familiar with the moonstruck marshmallow perfume from this brand, this moon witch milk is its cousin. There is wonderful similarities, the light air, sweet creaminess only with this one it adds a touch of spices. This is my first perfume that has the notes of turmeric, it adds an interesting twist.
If you do buy this one, I would wait for it to sit after first spray for a few days. This brand makes their perfumes fresh and into the bottle. I wasn’t vibing at first spray but after five days I came back to it and it’s beautiful. The magic happens after it settles and it’s worth the patience.
The dry down is amazing
It’s gives a very comforting feeling
I’d recommend if you are into gourmands that has sweet spices
Creamy and soft. Smells good.
This scent is so yummy and has that delicious combination of notes that make it smell like your favorite baked goods during the fall season. Absolutely loved it!
Smells of a beautiful latte
I love this. Milky and mysterious. Dries down to a forestry/druidy scent on me. Love it. Lasts a long time. I wish my roller ball worked a little better. The spray is fantastic!
Love waiting for these special gems to be made by creative hands. Every package is such a treat to open :)
Smells like the candy salad at the bottom of my great grandma's purse. Makes me miss her! Also, I need MORE
Can I eat this??? It's that delicious!
I'm a sparkling pumpkin pie now thanks!
Got a cute handwritten thank you and everything came nicely packaged. I also received a free sample that I ended up really liking 💜
I ordered the summer discovery set. There was a small hiccup with USPS shipping but in no way was it the sellers fault. She was very communicative and kind!! Packages came sealed and protected and I am very happy with perfumes themselves as each sent is so unique and yummy!! 10/10 Will buy again.
