 This Is Not a Delicate Perfume

This isn’t a whisper. It’s a wail in velvet.

You don’t wear this scent—you become it.
It settles on your skin like a remembered name.
It lingers in the room like unsaid goodbye.

 What It Smells Like

The moment you uncork it, the room shifts.

Bruised Turkish and Bulgarian roses bloom through sorrow.

Black pepper pierces—sharp as a realization.

Incense swirls like ritual smoke.

Coffee grounds you, like 3AM grief.

Sandalwood and patchouli wrap around you: warm, ancient, unshakable.

It doesn’t just smell like loss.
It smells like the sacred act of remembering.

🌘 From the Founder

“I didn’t want a perfume that smelled ‘pretty.’
I wanted a scent that felt like a Gothic heroine—
dark, beautiful, and still searching for healing in the ruins.”
— Faith Jones, Founder of BookShook

She’s rereading Wuthering Heights at midnight.
The candle’s guttering. The roses are dry. The grief is fresh.
That’s where this scent was born.

You don’t “get over it.”
You honor it.

You reread their deaths like scripture.

You light candles for the ones who never made it to the epilogue.

You cry in bookstores and annotate heartbreak like it's holy.

You carry every story you've ever survived.

If this is you…

You’ll wear it:

After a chapter that left you in ruins

To your book club’s fictional funeral

When you want your sorrow to walk in first

On days you choose to feel everything and hide nothing

 This Is More Than Perfume

Midnight Requiem doesn’t fade. It haunts.

It clings to your pages.
It holds onto your pulse.
It becomes part of your story.

Only 1,000 Character Grief Boxes will ever exist.
When they’re gone—they become memory.

This is not “sad girl perfume.”
This is grief, immortalized.

You mourn harder.
You love deeper.
You remember longer.

This scent was made for you.

Some people wear perfume.
Some people wear this.
