Best You by Glossier Alternatives & Similar Perfumes

The name means “sinful loves”, but there’s no sin in loving a perfume as irresistible as Amori Peccatori. This parfum deposits a quick kiss of fresh grapefruit and pink pepper before getting straight to the point: a plush pillow of orris, tonka bean and vanilla. The base of patchouli, amber and animalic musks lets people know you mean business.

The Flower of the Rising Sun!

The blooms of osmanthus, also known as sweet olive, exude sweet, fruity, leathery notes. In its creation bearing the blossom’s name, Molinard presents a surprising twist, blending the intoxicating floral notes of jasmine and tuberose with an irresistibly velvety duet of iris powder and apricot.

A sensuously carnal creation brimming with insouciance and freedom!

A formula which works like an ornate jewel case: all of the ingredients (pepper, cedar, vanilla and musk) hold the most precious of perfume materials– orris, in all its powdery suede glory.

Perfumer: Alexis Dadier

A beautiful dedication to iris and the alluring woody powdery aroma extracted from its rhizomes. Rhizomes are the flower’s creeping rootstalks which it sends under the ground to spread around.

It takes about 1000 kg of dry rhizomes (carefully dried and cured for 4 years) to produce just 2 kg of iris butter (also called orris).

It’s truly precious - Marie Jeanne spent about a year going through 160 attempts before arriving at their perfect blend of several iris extracts: butter of iris Florentina and iris Pallida and absolute of iris Germanica. Absolutes are derived from butter to achieve a fresher character.

Their goal was to create a modern, refined iris perfume and to depart from dated powdery violet interpretations.

Very few perfume houses have access to the ingredients of the same caliber that Marie Jeanne have used so generously in their Iris Pallida. The perfume is 28% strong, very diffusive but at the same time tantalizingly delicate.

The crown jewel of the formula, the blend of orris extracts, is set on a pedestal of sandalwood, patchouli and vetiver. Iris Pallida is an elegant and sensual modern iris perfume, meticulously blended from the most refined raw materials available to perfumers at the moment.

A radiant woody perfume with an intriguing name. Is it match as in a box of matches? The perfume does possess that dry wood and cardboard vibe escaping from a box when you take a match out. Or is it a match with your skin? There is a lot of musky sandalwood and veil-like ambroxan that together create an alluring clean super-layer hovering over your skin. Or match as in new love?

Inspired by Virginia Woolf’s A Room of One’s Own —the practice of taking space for yourself to think or create. Succulent pear and cozifying ambrette notes form a bright pool of sunlight around carrot seed, orris and warm cashmere. A melting embrace.

A sparkling and festive perfume, Still Life is a celebration of life!

A surprising and radiant perfume that invites you to celebrate in style with a whirlwind of exotic cocktails. The brilliance of Japanese Yuzu, accompanied by a cocktail infusion of rare peppers, rum and warm woods. A stark contrast between ever present freshness and comforting, warm notes. A woody citrus fragrance full of contrasts, energy and sparkle!

A perfume with an indulgently playful heart, constructed around a rare powdery Tuscan Orris Root, with a flirtatious wink of velvety chocolate Cacao Bean. Seductive Moroccan Neroli and sensual Brazilian Bois de Rose is mated with a fiery Sichuan Peppercorn and earthy French Oakmoss. A mischievous and enigmatic perfume full of spirited beauty.

A happy gourmand perfume with a note of praline, amber and patchouli, all glazed with bergamot.

Bon Parfumeur open olfactive dimensions and invite you to add your own story. Try 501 if you have a sweet tooth and like aromas of tasty treats such as cake, candy and various patisseries.

On a hot, dry terrain, through the cracks of rocks, enigmatic flowers flourish. Every now and then, great beauty requires great contrasts. The fragrance opens with a vibrant burst of orange (South Africa) and zesty ginger (Nigeria), followed by a complex floral heart of rich rose (Morocco), powdery iris (Ivory Coast) reminiscent of sand swirling below the flowers, and bright chamomile (Egypt). It finishes with a narcotic base of sensual sandalwood (Somalia) and creamy vanilla (Madagascar).
