What's in a Name, Vol. 13: YOU OR SOMEONE LIKE YOU

You or Someone Like You
Translation:
The namesake novel by Chandler Burr , which tells the story of Anne Rosenbaum, a woman navigating the complex social and cultural landscape of L.A.

Why it's the Scent of Summer 2024: 
At its core, You or Someone Like You is a fresh and green fragrance that defies easy categorization. It opens with a burst of crisp, minty freshness, evoking the feeling of walking through a lush garden in the early morning complemented by notes of rose, cassis, and an intriguing blend of herbs and spices. The fragrance settles into a soft, woody base, reminiscent of the calm and grounding presence of nature amidst the urban sprawl.

Light and airy, yet it carrying a subtle intensity that lingers on the skin, much like the lasting impressions left by the people we meet and the places we visit. It is a fragrance that feels both familiar and new, like a cherished memory that is constantly being rediscovered.

Inspiration:
Crafted in collaboration with Chandler Burr, a renowned author and fragrance critic, You or Someone Like You is an embodiment of what a "Los Angeles woman might wear". Burr's namesake novel captures the spirit of this iconic city, known for its diversity, creativity, and relentless pursuit of dreams.   

Revelation:
Representing a departure from the conventional narratives of luxury and opulence, You or Someone Like You embraces the idea of inclusivity and shared experiences. The fragrance is not about one singular, defining moment but rather the multitude of moments that shape our lives and connect us to others. This philosophy is at the heart of our approach to perfumery. Etat Libre d'Orange's avant-garde creations and willingness to explore the unconventional creates a scent that is both universal and intensely personal. It is a reminder that we are all part of a larger tapestry, woven together by the threads of our individual stories.
