The story behind the bottle.
O, Unknown! by Imaginary Authors is a composition that captures the essence of layered narratives and subtle provocation. Launched in 2017 and crafted by Josh Meyer, this Oriental Woody fragrance opens with powdery and green notes that create an intriguing tension before giving way to a heart of iris. The base of woody, earthy, amber, warm spicy, and musky accords anchors the scent with warmth and depth. O, Unknown! invites you into its complex world without pretense, challenging your senses and imagination.
Apply two sprays to your pulse points — this fragrance blooms gradually over time. Given its moderate longevity and sillage, it’s best experienced in intimate settings rather than filling a room.
