She Was An Anomaly

In hopes that this resonates with the right people, we'd guess that if an elf from Rivendell had a signature scent, they'd wear Etat Libre d'Orange's She Was An Anomaly. Hazy iris, flecks of vanilla and soft woods hold close to the body, creating a fuzzy barrier of protection between wearer and the outside world. A simple, yet unique day scent for musk lovers. From Etat Libre d'OrangeA singularity. A difference. A woman you will simply never understand. This perfume was necessary. A subtle yet unique blend of iris, enveloped by musk and sandalwood. From Perfumer Daniela AndrierEver since its inception, Etat Libre d’Orange has been an oddity, a deviation from the norm, an eccentric in the world of perfumery.We don’t fit the patterns, we don’t follow the traditions.Etat Libre d’Orange is a study in contradictions; light and dark, decadent and nice, romantic and cynical, honest and ironic. No one knows what to expect from us. Sometimes we don’t know what to expect from ourselves.Etat Libre d’Orange is an anomaly. We are different, our fragrances are different, their stories are different. We value this distinction, we celebrate it. And now we honor our difference with a perfume.This is who we are.This perfume is the result of something unexpected. I played with Carto*, Givaudan’s AI-powered tool for suggesting formulas. I gave it beloved and familiar notes. Carto suggested an overdose of two ingredients. I took care of the rest.– Daniela Andrier PerfumerDaniela (Roche) Andrier Notesiris, sandalwood, cedarwood, vanilla, fresh white flowers accord, green tangerine, orpur, musk, ambergris
