Etat Libre d'Orange Rien

Etat Libre d'Orange Rien opens with Pepper, Saffron and Incense; a heart of Leather, Orris and Labdanum; drying down to Patchouli, Vetiver and Oakmoss, from notes Etat Libre d'Orange (official) publishes. Those notes read as fruity, powdery, spicy, amber, woody, musky, the coarse families Etat Libre d'Orange (official) cites. How it wears depends on your skin and the concentration. We only publish notes and accords we can trace to a source.

Etat Libre d'Orange Rien is listed as unisex, marketed for anyone, which is how we'd wear it too. Fragrance has no inherent gender; the label just reflects how the retailer sells it.

Creed Delphinus (shares Orris, Pepper, Leather); Mancera Red Tobacco Intense (shares Saffron, Leather, Incense); Bond No. 9 Central Park West (shares Orris, Pepper, Oakmoss). These share specific notes with Rien, a closer match than a shared accord family. We rank them by how many of Rien's cited notes they actually share, weighting rarer notes heavier than ubiquitous ones. Each is its own fragrance with real, sourced notes, not a copy of Rien, and has its own page.
