Overview
L'Autre OudbyLancômeis a Amber Woody fragrance for women and men.L'Autre Oudwas launched in 2016. The nose behind this fragrance is Christophe Raynaud."Today, Lancôme has appointed some of the greatest contemporary perfumers to pay homage to Lancôme’s founder, Armand Petitjean. The result is Maison Lancôme's new collection of fragrances that so exquisitely touch upon and carry on Petitjean’s dream, and the essence of the House itself.This new High Perfumery experience takes a creative stance: the very French art of blending. Each fragrance is crafted in the same manner that one composes a wine of the most superior grade (Grand cru), with a combination of varieties, origins, and extractions that are all specially selected according to precise criteria." - a note from the brand.
