The Glossier You Fragrance is all about being understated, cool (obviously), and you but better. Here’s the low down.

What is Glossier You?

Emily Weiss, brand founder and ultimate cool girl said, “I want it to smell like your boyfriend’s neck after he has been wearing cologne for eight hours.” It is low key, smells clean yet warm and softly spicy, and is basically really good. It has a bit of a Jo Malone Wood Sage & Sea Salt vibe, but completely dialed down. This is a fragrance for ‘you’, not one that explodes all over the room, and is very much in keeping with the brand ethos of understated, low key chic. It smells very skin-like, in the best possible way. You could think of it as a skin enhancer.

The Notes

Glossier say the formula is incomplete and that you are the first ingredient!

“The three base notes melt in with your skin…
Ambrette: comfy, warm
Ambrox: smooth, salty, animalistic
Musk: long-lasting, addictive
And a mix of top notes that say “nice to meet you!” without overpowering the base…
Iris root: earthy, green, woody
Pink pepper: spice, sparkling”

My Review of Glossier You Perfume

I absolutely love the packaging. It’s in a clean Glossier-pink-fade-to-sheer glass bottle with a matte red lid. It also a cute dimple where your thumb sits when you spritz. Fun!

For the fragrance fans out there, you’ll be interested to know that Emily worked with the team behind Le Labo Santal 33 to create Glossier You.

It is a really easy to wear, pretty fragrance. It smells like clean, softly warm skin and the Iris note feels clean but slightly earthy in a really subtle but sexy way.

It really reminds me of Atelier Cologne’s Iris Rebelle which is pretty difficult to get your hands on in the UK now.

This fragrance has been a huge hit since it launched back in October 2017.
