There is something that I really like about the Book scents, and there is also something I don’t like (the green smell that is referred to as dill here).
Luckily, in all 3 versions of Book, that strong dill fades after a while and then reveals its smoky and woodsy notes.
I think I like Book+ best as this version has the strongest black tea + smoke notes, which combined smells like leather to me. Reminds me of Tom Ford Ombré leather, but then a softer and friendlier version. I also get the comparison to the leather and hay notes in Santal33, but I think in Book it’s softer, better.
When applied on my skin, Book+ also has some sweetness to it after the dill has faded, almost a bit vanilla-like. Which I don’t smell on clothes.
Although I like this scent a lot (áfter dill has faded) I find it rather masculine scent, and a bit to masculine to make this my new everyday scent. I think therefore I like the Paper series better, although the Book serie is more special and unusual.
Please let me know if a hybrid of Paper and Book without the dill-like note will be released one day, I will be the first to try!
