Ylang-ylang opens lush and custard-sweet, its banana-like creaminess immediately lacquered by saffron’s dry leather leatheriness and the jammy lift of rose.

By the editors · 2 min readYlang-ylang opens lush and custard-sweet, its banana-like creaminess immediately lacquered by saffron’s dry leather leatheriness and the jammy lift of rose. The trio settles quickly into a heart where iris turns the florals talcum-powdery while cedar injects splinter-dry wood, both notes cushioned by amber that thickens the texture to warm toffee. Over the first hour the composition folds inward: the ylang loses its tropical edge, the saffron mellows to a muted suede nuance, and the iris-amber accord dominates as a velvety, slightly cosmetic haze. In the dry-down cedar’s quiet pencil-shaving clarity is all that remains over a clean white-musk chassis that hugs skin. Projection stays within arm’s length; the scent feels made for cool autumn galleries or a restrained dinner date.
