If Etat Libre d'Orange had set out specifically to make a fragrance that would delight us here at Luckyscent, they still probably couldn't top You Or Someone Like You. Dedicated to our hometown of Los Angeles? Check. Creative directed by our good friend and collaborator Chandler Burr and named after his L.A.-based novel? Check. And most importantly, the kind of fresh, crisply cool niche scent that's oh so wonderfully easy to wear in any situation, yet distinct and head-turning? In a city where deals are made poolside and boardroom meetings might feature more denim than Italian wool, that's a big, important check. While they're keeping the official notes a secret, we're buzzing off You Or Someone Like You's sharp, fruity opening and ultra-fresh mint and floral body--it really does evoke one of our favorite L.A. experiences- sipping a drink on the wraparound balcony of a party palace in the hills, taking in our big, weird, wonderful city.

Come to think of it, did ELDO and Chandler make this scent just for us?

Here's what other people are saying about You Or Someone Like You...

It’s the middle of summer and this is the most refreshing, cooling mint julep! I almost want to bathe in it to cool me off. It is perfect for this heat, and it’s just beautiful! I cannot stop sniffing my wrist. It’s such a delight! The mint is photorealistic, not at all a toothpaste or chewing gum scent. It’s as if you crushed some sprigs of fresh mint in your hand. It’s bright and uplifting. Definitely green, and something sparkling, a citrus perhaps? Bergamot, pink pepper? I’m obsessed!

I ordered a sample of this and have been wearing it all week. Initially, it smells very strongly of cut flower stems with a hint of mint. It smells nice and clean, but nothing that WOWS me. And it fades very quickly. I am happy to use out the sample, but it won't make it to my must have list.

By Diane - librarian from Boston, MA on 3/28/2024

Living in the hot-as-balls climate of LA, I needed a summer fragrance that would be light, refreshing, and lasting. According to the “story” of this perfume, this was made for an LA woman…. And I have to agree. The mint note in this is FANTASTIC. Normally I shy away from that, because it leans so “dentist office tooth care” for me. Not here - this is like sticking your face in a green and growing lovely mint plant. The rose is light and lovely, not jammy or heavy here at all. In the hot summer days I spent outside, this would waft off my skin and hit me with the most refreshing smell. A full bottle worthy buy!

By AJ - Event coordination from Los Angeles on 12/14/2023

I was told that this was similar to a discontinued Bath and Body Works scent that I really miss. But that person was sorely mistaken. This is a very clean scent. I didn't notice any mint notes. If I could simply describe this one it's "Citrusy Fresh Linens that you threw in the Grass!!" That fits this one perfectly. It really didn't laste long either. After one hour I could barely notice it.

By Emily - Hospitality Industry from ALEXANDRIA on 3/10/2023

I got this as a sample when I was gifted 'Secretions Magnifique' and I think this will be my next full bottle purchase. It's pretty but it's not girly (not that girly is a bad thing) and it just smells good. It's not department store 'clean' like so many designer scents are, but it just smells SO good. I can't put my finger on what about it makes it smell so good, it's maybe that mint/citrus combination. It smells like a cocktail I would fall in love with.

By Jim - husband from Pawleys Island on 1/20/2022

Fresh cut grass and mint notes distract from those "dirty human notes" somebody mentioned in comments, but not very successful - I do hear them, and it's bothering me. I didn't find cherry or any other fruits in it, not even a citrus. It's just this weird combination that gives me association: green bright freshness on unclean body.

By Ev_genia - Photographer from Jersey City on 10/29/2021

Minty spicy thinker. The sillage seemed a bit intense when I daubed it on. I like it. Fresh with body.

By Anonisme - Business from Boston on 11/9/2020

Fresh, minty, fresh. I don't want a FULL full bottle but blissfully I can get a small one!

By Anonisme - Business from Boston on 10/28/2020

hmm, disappointed in this knowing it came from chandler burr who often speaks of dirty human notes in perfumes. i expected a bit of male crotch hidden under the minty fresh top. well that didnt happen. it was just fresh and minty and bit fruity. sad but wearable

By river - barber from chicago on 7/14/2020

What a wonderful, sunshiny, breezy, sparkling scent this is. Fresh, cooling, giddy and brilliant. Suggestive of bright citrus, tropical fruit and aromatic, minty vegetation, but no one note sticks out or is too sweet. Airy aldehydes suggest "brand-new" things like new clothes, new shoes, a new hair-do, cellophane wrap and new interiors. Creates a scintillating, electric mood-- the best side of California-- where anything could happen. Modern and exciting. Expertly blended, easily unisex. Astrologically, this scent is ideal for the Air signs-- Gemini, Libra and Aquarius.

By david lincoln brooks - artist from central texas on 12/17/2019

This is the one my wife wants a bottle of. The one that feels like her. It reminds her of smelling her mother's silk scarf. Floral, but abstract, and restrained. Modern. Made her feel confident, made me feel good.

By Ben - Boring Professional from D.C. on 3/17/2018

Delightful! I normally go for woodsier fragrances but this one is really fresh and fun without the sweetness some gourmand and floral scents have. Here, the floral note -- rose? I think it must be -- is nicely balanced with the mint, which is not overly sweet or food-like. It's not herbal exactly, but it's definitely clear and dry -- grassy almost. I got decent longevity but little projection, but that's with a sample vial, not a spray. This one might be overwhelming if generously applied. A lovely summer scent. I may buy the travel size. It's unusual but still comforting. Very accessible. I think you could wear it just about anywhere.

By Julie - bureaucrat from San Francisco on 11/8/2017

Fresh but warm scent. Distinctive mint leaves softened with honey. There is something in it that brings me the memories of late spring-early summer meadows full of dandelions and a blooming mimosa tree growing nearby.

By Inna - teacher from lexington on 9/2/2017

This is a very, very nice fragrance. I'm not even going to try to identify the notes, but it is a wonderful blend with nothing particularly dominant. There's greenery, and some floral components, and just an overall freshness that may be some mint. It smells nice. I found it a little too feminine for me, but I gave the rest of the sample to a female friend and she nearly lost it... she loved the way that it dried down to a very light musky fragrance while still retaining the greenery. She'll be buying some as soon as it's back in stock. PS - This is ELDO?!?!?!? This has got to be, along with Cologne, the most civilized fragrance in their line. It will make people like you, and offend no one.

By BassMent - Fine smelling project manager from Providence, RI on 6/26/2017

Oh, man, this is one of the prettiest scents I have discovered in a long time. I haven't been to California, so I don't know if it smells like this perfume, but if it does I want to move there! It's light and easy, nice notes of mint and kind of aloe-y, floral but not cloyingly so. It's the kind of scent you want to put on after your post-long-day-in-the-sun shower. I get a lot of compliments on this scent and my boyfriend follows close by whenever I'm wearing it.

By Stacie - F&B Director from Louisville, KY on 6/2/2017

Terrifically light fresh and joyful scent with tones of a Spring Garden. Perhaps it may be "For somebody just like you" - you decide. It is great fun to wear and share!

By Nan Stewart - Business woman and Cake Baker from Cherry Hill, NJ 08003 on 5/16/2017

A cheery mint-and-citrus thing, though that's mint in the whole-plant sense, with the opening including that odd pong that freshly snipped stems have. Long-playing, incredibly wearable, soap-and-sunshine freshness from a house where that's not necessarily the expected effect.

By Angela - editor from Seattle on 5/9/2017

since notes arent listed ill say this perfume reminds me very much of guerlain's herba fresca. both have a really nice tangy green cholorphyll note, somewhat akin to pressing your nail into a blade of grass. however this perfume has a cherry musk like top that gives it a mildly fruity opening along with some non sweetened mint. even after washing my hands the green notes lingered where i applied the sample so i imagine this perfume has pretty good staying power. kinda synthetic at times but no one around you will think that from its sillage. i like this perfume and could see myself gettin a small bottle in the summer. for now though im still hooked on "the weekend" by roads as my summery type frag. once thats finished tho ill prob get this
