Somewhere but Nowhere

Somewhere but nowhere is the house's ode to Americana, a story of grit, lonesomeness and grace. A heart of bold cedarwood steeps with cardamom and black tea, and a little vanilla cream softens the edges. The named materials are Cardamom, Black Tea at the top, Cedarwood, Leather in the heart and Vanilla in the base. Wearers describe a fresh but grounded cedar, cardamom and tea scent that is not heavily leathery, unisex and a little dark-academia in mood. Opinions vary on skin, from sweet and spicy to sharp, and a few report a sour turn. Lore sells Somewhere but Nowhere as a unisex eau de parfum in 50 ml and 10 ml, and as a 1.5 ml sample in its Discovery Set. Wear time is moderate and it projects at a moderate level, so the 10 ml size is a practical way to carry it. Lore is a small American house whose first five eau de parfums came out in 2025 and 2026, each told as a short story and made with natural ingredients that the brand says are vetted with conservation ecologists. It ships within the United States, and the range is sold alongside candles and objects. Somewhere but Nowhere is placed in the line by its woody, spicy and earthy character.
