This is yet another skin scent, but it still smells completely different from the others. As its name suggests, the fragrance imitates the aroma of paper with a crisp combination of steamed rice accord, blonde woods accord, and white musks. Book lovers, this one was made for you.
Notes: White musks, steamed rice accord, mimosa, blonde woods accord

An ELLE editor says: “At first whiff, Papier’s scent evokes the essence of autumn—warm, woody, and invigorating, like a brisk gust of wind on a cool fall morning. As it settles, it transforms into something brighter, softer, and creamier, thanks to the addition of white musks and mimosa. This is my favorite scent to layer because it adapts beautifully to any season. In spring or summer, I combine it with fresh, laundry-like fragrances for a sparkling, delicate blend. In contrast, during the colder months, I enhance it with more musks to create a deeper, moodier mix that complements the original notes.”—Nerisha Penrose, ELLE.com beauty commerce editor
