Glossier You is a perfume that smells close to you but as its name suggests, it’s the glossier version of you. Sound unbelievable? As incredible as it may seem, this is one of the rare perfumes that dispenses a familiar human-y note that reflects the light scent of homo sapiens. It’s sparkling, clean, warm, and creamy … very you! Launched in 2017, it was created by Dora Baghriche and Frank Voelkl and has turned into a cult and TikTok favorite.
Let’s begin with its other wonderful notes. It’s a delightful combination of the earthy, green, woody notes of as many as … five enchantingly scented ingredients. These include iris root, pink pepper (yes pink pepper exists but it’s not related to the more familiar black pepper), ambrette, animalistic ambrox, and musk. After several rounds of laboratory tests with the multi-hued notes of these elements, in numerous permutations and combinations, we have end result…phew! It’s one of the most pleasant-smelling perfumes while exuding the ultimate personal fragrance that describes…you! It’s eau de parfum, (edp).
However, unlike most other scents that seem to evaporate easily, Glossier You doesn’t fade or change as it dries down, owing to its heavy focus on base notes. The meticulous and diligent experimentation procedure where each note was chosen and balanced to not just produce a very personal scent but one that was as long lasting as it was blissful.
Now you can order a perfume sample in the size that you prefer and try this for yourself - see if it is you completely you!
Glossier You Reviews
New York Post - " “I know this scent but also can’t place it at all! I can’t explain it but I know I KNOW the smell but cannot put words to it. It’s like a musky combination of pine needles with gasoline, but in a good way. There’s a sharp bite to but ends with a subtle smokey vibe.”
Fragrantica - "This fragrance is intoxicating and I literally just want to consume it. I love smelling myself when I'm wearing it and my husband tends to compliment it as well. I like that it lingers on my clothes for days."
Fragrantica - "Lipstick and pencil shavings sandwiched in between pink pepper and powdery iris - and I’m here for it! It’s an easy reach and friendly to most. Very inviting and somewhat, “studious”. It reminds me of my Mum, actually. It doesn’t smell like my Mum, it just reminds me of her because of the comforting nature it possesses. There’s a soft “warmth” to it but don’t expect anything “cozy”. The warmth is in its kindness."
Fragrantica - "Glossier You smells like when you were little and got into your mom's makeup bag, or the glossy pages of a fashion magazine. It's so nostalgic and strangely cozy. This is the perfume you smell as a beautiful stranger steps off the elevator. It feels like a perfume to wear in a city."
Fragrantica - "This is the only perfume I own that without fail gets me compliments from both women and men. It’s my signature perfume. Easy for any occasion and still special enough to have people ask about it. I love it"
Fragrantica - "There must have been aromatherapy magic at play in the creation of Glossier You. The other night, I took a cue from Jus de Rose and spritzed my night clothes and bed sheets and my evening felt elevated. I only realized after spritzing in the bedroom how subliminally attractive and inviting of a scent it is. The bedroom felt like the warmest, safest, most pleasurable place in the house. I think this is one of the keys to its success: how inviting it is."
Fragrantica - "An absolute masterpiece of perfume, so simple yet so effective."
