by Caroline Sabas

État Libre d'Orange You Or Someone Like You is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Caroline Sabas. The fragrance opens with Mint, Anise, Bergamot, and Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Rose, Green, Redcurrant Leaf, and Hedione, and dries down to a base of Musk.

Our verdict on You Or Someone Like You: Favourite

This mint-forward fragrance is a divisive beast, heralded by some as a photo-realistic, refreshing triumph, and dismissed by others as reminiscent of cleaning products or even cat pee. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but for mint lovers, it's a must-try.

Its fresh, clean, and green profile makes it ideal for casual wear and invigorating sport. While some find it light enough for the office, its distinct, sometimes polarising, character and moderate projection might be too much for formal settings.

About

Imagine crushing wild mint leaves between your fingers, then adding a splash of grapefruit and bergamot for a tart, invigorating lift. As it settles, a soft, green rose emerges, dewy and light, supported by a subtle hint of anise. The dry down wraps things up with a clean, ethereal musk, creating a scent that feels like a brisk walk through a verdant garden after the rain.
