A Fantasy Long Overdue

Posted by Laureen Mahler

 

Being a massive word nerd, I'll admit I have an affinity for the sexy librarian fantasy. That said, I tend to overthink the whole sex in the library part of it. Would it really be all that comfortable? What if someone walked in on the scene? Don't you have to be quiet in libraries?

Fortunately, now I can bring the sexy librarian fantasy to the comforts of my own bedroom...

... with this set of library-scented candles. Scents include: 


[$45, Assouline]

old books,

[$45, Assouline]

cigars,


[$45, Assouline]

wooden bookshelves,


[$45, Assouline]

and leather armchairs.

Now I just need a pair of stilettos, reading glasses, and the ever-elusive stern/sexy eyebrow raise. I keep practicing that last one, but I'm stuck somewhere between "I lost a contact lens" and "what's that smell?"

OMG. I recently went to my local library for the first thing, and the thing that made me sad was, it didn't smell like a library should. You think they'd mind me burning candles near their bookshelves?

Same with my library in Brooklyn! It just smells sterile in there. It's sad.
