What does the unforgettable scent of old books bring us?
Just like old wine, old books have irresistible and attractive scent even for us, modern people. In time this old books’ scent becomes even more intoxicating and attractive. It is a scent of the past, of chocolate and vanilla, of candles and a fireplace. It is clearly distinguishable, but words will never be enough to give the exact description of that addictive scent and why it attracts us. Here is why specialists have managed to carry over the magnificent scent of old books into candles and perfumes. But what does exactly the scent of an old book bring us?
Scent of luxury and respect – owning and showing old books, as well as old paintings, changes entirely the atmosphere of our home. Do you remember those black and white movies, when the richest and noblest home was recognized by its library, where dozens of well-maintained old books with thick covers were arranged? A person who possesses a lot of valuable old books is seen in a totally different way – he gets respect, honor and even admiration.
Scent of authenticity – only between two thick covers of an old book, carrying time with themselves, you will truly feel the genius of great writers such as Balzac, Hugo, Maupassant and Chekhov. This is a feeling you will never explore through a shiny edition of a modern press. Old books imperceptibly immerse the reader in the atmosphere of past times and help understand the traditions and values of life and then pass those on to the next generation through their heirs. Every old book has its history as an object held in the hands of other people before you. Usually on the pages of old books there could be seen notes, names, dates, signatures, a drawn heart. Even an old book held by several hands through the years hides a destiny, another life of some person who has loved and suffered, has doubted and has been uplifted before you. Because you are just another admirer, who is allowed to dive into the old book. And how good it is to feel that before you, there were others …
A dream of escape – an old book creates a feeling of escape from the oppressive reality which is so desired by the 21st century man. The scent, the font and its authenticity will immerse you back in times when men were real, while women – more ladylike temptresses who sacrificed their life for the impulse of heart. Old books are somehow an escape from reality, which brings the reader tranquility and comfort and separates him from the daily problems, troubles and worries.
Old books have unsuspected effect and qualities:
- they stimulate the imagination and creativity – old books are not only an instrument for immersing in new unknown worlds, but they are also a generator of imagination, action and creative means. In this case, an old book would be much more useful than television and movies.
- they offer tranquility and comfort – another distinctive feature of old books preserved in the library at home. The old book is an escape from the daily high levels of stress and tension for the modern working man, who wanders between business meetings and usual tasks in the office. At the end of the day there is nothing better than forgetting the bad part of the day, sitting on your couch with a drink, reading your favorite old book. It is like a friend who brings back peace and comfort.
An old book – the best gift
Nowadays an old book is still one of the best gifts for a relative, a lover or a friend. In this case it is not so important what the financial value of the old book is. What matters is what it carries inside and how you prove that you truly care about someone - you have been searching for the exact edition from the exact year. This is a gift that will be remembered and appreciated by its worth.
Old books have collectible value – the older a book is, the higher its collectible value may be. The collectible value of an old book gives another great advantage in the hands of its owner. Even when a man doesn’t need them or just wants to free more space, old books can easily be sold at a relatively good price. Online auctions are an extremely useful tool which connects the seekers of old books that have a collectible value with their future owners.
