Perfumer: Josh Meyer

An enchanted forest wonderland of your youth, larger-than-life adolescent misadventures, the pay-off you felt when leaving your comfort zone for the first time. Impassable Woods evokes the mystery of an untouched forest, where damp earth, dense greenery and woody textures create an atmosphere of quiet isolation. Dark, atmospheric and deeply evocative, it captures the feeling of wandering into the wilderness, surrounded by nature in its rawest form. A scent for those drawn to the unknown, where earthy depth meets the untamed beauty of the woods.

Notes: Grand Fir, Scotch Pine, Resurrection Fern, Red Cedar, Oakmoss, Petrichor, The Ancient Grove

Imaginary Authors Impassable Wilderness EDP 50ml

IMPASSABLE WILDERNESS

Just beyond the city of Portland in the Pacific Northwest, there’s a place where people just don’t go. The forest is too deep. The hills are too steep. Overgrown and impassable, these woods have remained hidden for generations from the world outside. Prue McKeel, however, desperately needs to get inside. Her baby brother Mac has been snatched up by a murder of beady-eyed crows and carried away into the darkest depths of the forest, and she has to save him. 

But what started out as a rescue mission becomes something much more.

This is the story of a girl who learns how far she must go to hold on to the ones she loves, and of a woman who never learned to let go. It is a tale of love, loss, sacrifice and secrets, and of the magic you can find on your doorstep, if you are willing to look for it.

Meet the Maker

Imaginary Authors

Imaginary Authors was founded by Josh Meyer in Portland, Oregon, after he quite his job in real estate to pursue niche perfumery in 2012. The fragrance house formulate wildly unique fragrances born from the concept of scent as art and art as provocation. Like a good book, these scents are designed to inspire.

Each bottle houses a layered narrative that are sure to generate stirring conversation, and perhaps even change the course of your own personal story. They not only invigorate and intoxicate, but also take the wearer to new places. Each Imaginary Authors fragrance follows a compelling storyline peppered with intriguing twists. Every scent comes with its own fictional synopsis, but it’s left to the wearer bring the story to life.

” I wanted to create something that bled fun—as opposed to the business world, which simply wasn’t fun to me anymore. I want the folks experiencing Imaginary Authors to be able to see the fun in every single aspect that comes out of the line. “
— Josh Meyer, founder

These are scents to curl up with, to share with friends, to take with you wherever you go, and to return to again and again for a uniquely transcendent olfactory experience. Imaginary Authors’ fragrances are composed using a harmonious blend of essential oils, absolutes, isolated molecules, safe synthetic molecules and resins. Free of parabens and phthalates, they abstain from animal testing and are entirely vegan. Designed to be worn by anyone and everyone, their fragrances are genderless.

Imaginary Authors passionately believes that creativity is the best tool we have to solve systemic problems in an industry, a community, and the world at large.

Simply put, they believe in beautiful things and that a beautiful future is within our reach.
