Late August
Fragrance notes
Character
Late August opens with a crisp green freshness that feels like cool air moving through a garden. The initial impression is bright and slightly dewy, giving the composition a clean start before the heavier elements arrive. This green touch keeps the entrance from feeling overly dense, allowing the floral heart to unfold with clarity.
The center is a rich bouquet of ylang-ylang, tuberose, jasmine, rose, and iris. Tuberose and jasmine provide a creamy, heady white floral character, while rose adds a soft warmth and iris contributes a smooth, powdery texture. Ylang-ylang bridges the gap with its own golden sweetness. Together, these materials create a layered floral experience that feels lush and traditional.
Sandalwood, amber, and musk form a woody and amber base that supports the flowers. The sandalwood adds a creamy dry woodiness, amber brings a resinous glow, and musk wraps the blend in a soft skin-like finish. The overall impression is powdery and musky, leaning into the white floral and yellow floral facets while maintaining a green thread throughout.
This scent suits a walk under gray skies when leaves are damp on the ground and a sweater is pulled tight against the chill. The air smells of wet earth and fading blooms, a moment caught between the height of growth and the stillness of the cold months ahead.
