Equally Diptyque Fleur de Peau, which is a perfume like Glossier You (though slightly more mature) is also a dreamy swap, with its delicate balance of powdery florals—also including Iris.
P.S. If you're hunting for a true signature like Fleur De Peau or You, look for base notes of pink peppercorn and ambrette.
Other options also include perfumes that, like REPLICA's hero scent, are reminiscent of or inspired by cotton sheets, like Reserve's Warm Cotton. For a more luxurious option, the Maison Francis Kurkdjian Aqua Universalis comes to mind, with its blend of white florals and musks.
