Every beauty editor I know has a bottle of this iconic skin scent on their shelf, and this is what it smells like

Two guests at Copenhagen fashion week.

As a general rule, I typically try to avoid wearing popular perfumes. Sure, scents with a cult following will be sought-after for a reason (I get it—they smell good), but I can’t help gravitating towards niche fragrances to kid myself that my perfume choices are somewhat exclusive. However, there is one perfume that I will make an exception for and that is Glossier You—the cult perfume that every single beauty editor I know considers a signature scent. 

In fact, this perfume's appeal is so wide-reaching that even my friends outside of the industry have fallen for its skin-like sillage. And who can blame them? Since its launch in 2017, I have been liberally spritzing myself with this subtle fragrance. To me, it’s so much more than an eau de parfum—it’s a part of my personal scent DNA. So, let’s dissect exactly what makes it so alluring.
