Heart Of Ylang

Heart Of Ylang opens with a bright citrus lift from bergamot, joined by the tart bite of red currant and a gentle spark of pink pepper. The entrance feels clean and energetic, giving the fragrance a crisp start that draws attention without overwhelming the senses. It moves quickly into a dense floral heart where ylang-ylang takes the lead, softened by the creamy richness of jasmine sambac. This phase carries a distinct yellow floral character that feels warm and slightly sweet, wrapped in a powdery finish that smooths the edges of the brighter opening.

The base settles into a woody blend of sandalwood, cedar, and musk. Sandalwood adds a creamy depth that supports the florals, while cedar brings a drier, more structured feel. Musk rounds out the composition with a soft, skin-like warmth that keeps the scent close and personal. The overall impression is sweet but not sugary, floral but not fleeting, and woody enough to feel grounded through every stage of the wear.

This fragrance suits cooler evenings when the air has a bit of bite and the light is low. It works well in settings that call for something polished and feminine, pairing easily with knit fabrics, dim restaurants, and quiet streets after sunset. The mood is composed and graceful, offering a steady presence that feels intentional without demanding constant notice from everyone nearby.

Heart Of Ylang stays true to its yellow floral and woody accords, letting jasmine sambac and sandalwood carry the final impression.
