The Lost Chapter — a fragrance steeped in mystery
And Other Stories The Lost Chapter is a women's eau de toilette launched in 2022 as part of the And Other Stories Eau de Toilette Collection.
The name The Lost Chapter sets a distinctive mood: the fragrance feels like a fragment of a personal story that you want to reread again and again.
Born in Stockholm in 2013 as part of the H&M Group, the And Other Stories brand has become a notable voice in Scandinavian style and accessible luxury perfumery.
Its compositions are often built around evocative images, and The Lost Chapter expresses the brand's love of minimalist aesthetics, unexpected combinations and a sense of intellectual freedom particularly well.
Character and olfactory profile
In terms of its olfactory profile, The Lost Chapter combines aromatic, floral, fruity and woody facets.
It is neither a carefree fruity perfume nor a classic woody composition, but a more layered and sensual everyday fragrance in which spicy nuances gradually give way to a soft, warm and enveloping drydown.
The composition was created by Jérôme Epinette, a perfumer known for combining contemporary transparency with expressive texture.
In The Lost Chapter, this signature style appears in the contrast between a fresh opening, an unusual tea-and-fruit heart and a calm woody-spicy base.
Longevity, sillage and wearability
According to the description, The Lost Chapter has a very strong sillage, so the eau de toilette makes a noticeable presence in its surroundings and is well suited to those who enjoy expressive fragrances.
It is best to start with a small amount, especially indoors, and then assess how it develops on your own skin: the composition's intensity may vary depending on temperature, humidity and skin type.
The fragrance is well suited to the cool transitional seasons, autumn and winter, when its spicy-woody character is especially striking.
During the day, it adds individuality to an outfit, while in the evening it can easily become the finishing touch to a more polished and mysterious look.
There is no information about the recommended number of sprays on skin and clothing, so it is best to start with minimal application and build up to the desired intensity.
Who will enjoy The Lost Chapter
The Lost Chapter was created for women who appreciate unconventional combinations and fragrances with character.
It may appeal to fans of tea, spicy and woody compositions, as well as those looking for a perfume with noticeable sillage and a distinctive mood without obvious sweetness.
If you are drawn to the idea of a soft yet expressive woody fragrance, you could try Parfums BDK Paris Gris Charnel for comparison.
At the same time, The Lost Chapter maintains its own distinctive voice: it feels like a contemporary olfactory story about contrasts, where spiciness, tea-like depth and warm woody accents come together to create a cohesive impression.
