Which Should You Buy?
A minimalist powdery musk that melts into your skin, Glossier You is the ultimate 'your skin but better' scent. Comforting, soft, and quietly radiant, it is modern, intimate, and effortlessly wearable.
No. 998 Intense pushes the 'skin but better' formula of Glossier You harder with a heavier musk-ambrox base, but the amplified projection reads more generic ambroxan than the original's uniquely personal, skin-adapting warmth.

Performance
Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The musky powdery core and soft iris make it ideal for spring and fall, while the clean, airy character is fresh enough for summer. It lacks the heft and density for true winter impact.
Occasions
Its intimate projection and soft powdery musky character make it perfect for office and daily wear, as it will not offend. For dates it is subtly sensual, but too understated for formal or sport contexts.
Seasons
The warm ambrox-musk base and increased projection suit cooler autumn and winter wear, where its intimate warmth reads as cosy rather than cloying.
Occasions
Best suited to dates and evenings where its warm, addictive musk can be appreciated up close; too noticeable for a quiet office day.
Similarity Breakdown
