Fragrance house

Lake & Skye

Lake & Skye was launched in 2015 by Courtney Somer, who named it after her daughters’ middle names. The brand grew from an aromatherapy-focused predecessor into a line of fragrances, candles, and body products, bringing Somer’s studies in yoga, nutrition, aromatherapy, and meditation into a fragrance practice centered on emotional wellness. Its identity treats scent as a way to alter mood, support presence, and elevate everyday routines, with products presented as unisex. Somer, the founder and chief creative officer, materially shaped that connection between holistic health and fragrance development. Lake & Skye is especially known for 11 11, launched in September 2015: a fresh, musky white-amber fragrance named after numerology and the association of 11:11 with wishes or good luck. The 11 11 family later expanded with Azure and Vanilla variations. On January 8, 2025, Lake & Skye announced that Tru Fragrance had acquired the brand.
