By the editors · 2 min readYlang-ylang opens buttery and banana-sweet, its custard heft cushioned by a sparkle of bergamot that keeps the top from cloying. Tuberose muscles in quickly, its camphoric creaminess pushing the ylang to the margins while jasmine adds a cleaner white-petal glow, together forming a thick floral soufflé. Vanilla and white musk form the dominant accord in the base: vanilla supplies a rounded, icing-like sweetness that softens the flowers, while white musk stretches the scent into a clean skin that lasts close to skin. The fragrance stays linear after the first hour, a warm, sweet, musky veil that projects no more than arm’s length and prefers cooler evenings or layered wear.
