Imaginary Authors Saint Julep Eau de Parfum

On the outskirts of Clarksdale, Mississippi, at the end of a secluded dirt road sat a small ramshackle church. It was not a place of worship but rather where many went to seek refuge during impoverished times. Legend has it the structure was transported to the wild mint field by hand, hoisted on the shoulders of two dozen men. The outside remained simple and nondescript, but the interior was aglow with pilfered neon signs, Christmas lights, and a jukebox donated by the sheriff’s son. It was a distinctly secular place where locals who knew where to find it could share moonshine, socialise, and dance their troubles away. They called their ramshackle juke joint Saint Julep and the oral histories compiled within paint a picture of that magical place where “the smiles are always free and salvation had the distinct smell of sweet mint.”

EDITOR'S NOTES

Saint Julep honours the natural affinity between mint leaves and sugar, which becomes a syrup that rounds out the sharp sweetness of these green leaves, warming its mentholated cool. Combined with the sweet fire of bourbon whiskey, this trio form the rudiments of a great cocktail - and a great time. This is softened with the green and white tints of magnolia flower, and the tender, almost honey-like sweetness of tangerine. Imaginary Authors works this with a delectable stickiness, the sort that coats fingertips with its mix of the viscous and the granular. Indeed, Saint Julep is an emphatically textured fragrance - and the major source of its addiction. Even more, the scent trail of this one is instantly remarkable - its tenacious ambergris note (grisalva), with a leathery touch, is much like the massively popular Baccarat Rouge 540 from Maison Francis Kurkdjian.
