A.N Other Fragrance

A.N Other fragrances have each been curated by a world renowned perfumer. The company challenges perfumers to come up with their perfect scent – without limitations in budget, ingredients, or narrow briefs to adhere to.

One scent is then selected to come to market for a limited time. A.N Other’s goal is to provide high quality fragrances at a more affordable price than the big fragrance companies whose prices are hiked up by expensive marketing campaigns.

The fragrances are all gender-neutral, and free from parabens, phthalates, dyes, and toxins. They come present in a luxury-feel cardboard presentation box made from recycled cardboard.

This perfume utilises the tranquil and nourishing qualities of sandalwood to enhance concentration and awaken intuition. An infusion of lush, effervescent pear at the top adds a distinct uplifting quality and an unmistakably modern appeal.

“It was terrific working with no brief. It was an experience I will not forget. It was great not working with budget constraints. I just wish I had creative freedom all the time. Submitting the fragrance as it was and having it accepted was a dream come true.”

SIMPLE IS THE NEW BOLD

Brands spend a disproportionate amount of money on marketing and gimmicks, leaving only a small budget for the product itself.

A. N OTHER is different. We have a crystal-clear focus on what’s inside the bottle. Everything else is stripped back to the barest essentials.

The confidence to spend less on nonsense lets us invest more in exceptional craftsmanship and extraordinary ingredients.

EXCEPTIONAL CRAFTSMANSHIP

David Apel won the ‘American Society of Perfumers Young Perfumer Award’ in 1991 and is one of the most recognizable stars in the industry. He also created Hall of Fame perfume Black Orchid for Tom Ford.

We wanted David for our debut collection. So, we gave him total creative control, an unlimited budget, and a promise not to tamper with his work.

The result is OR/2018, a warm perfume that projects comfort and confidence.

PROTECTING THE PLANET

The entire collection is gender-neutral. We use only clean ingredients. Our perfumes don’t contain parabens, phthalates, dyes, toxins, or animal products. We respect the planet.

The materials we use are sustainable and made by companies that enforce modern environmental standards. Our glass bottles are made in Italy. The magnetic caps are made in France from a plant-based resin, in a cradle-to-grave sustainable manufacturing process.

Our packaging is 100% plastic-free and eliminates a secondary shipping box. It’s made in the US from recycled cardboard and 100% biodegradable organic paper.
