Etat Libre d'Orange Like This Bottles and Samples

What we think:

We like it! Like This (also known as Tilda Swinton Like This, as it's inspired by her) feels cozy yet unique and elegant too. It's powdery and soapy but with a subtety to it, and the fresh pumpkin is done in a way that feels intriguing. It's great to smell a scent that has an actual fresh pumpkin accord, and not another synthetic kitschy Halloween one! There's also a slight underlying warmth to it.

We think Like This this is a great subtle take on an autumn scent that doesn't scream "fall candle." The sweetness here is soft as well, and not too sugary or syrupy. The ginger is like smooth baking spice and not sharp or hot, and the citrus is uplifting and not bitter at all. Nice!

As with any scent, skin chemistry plays a big part. The pumpkin comes out strong for some people, and others find it muted on theirs. (Yet another reason we always recommend sampling instead of doing blind buys!)
