Ylang Petals & Amber

Ylang Petals & Amber opens with a sharp lift from pink pepper that cuts through the creamy tiare and bergamot. The spice is present but brief, giving way to the heart where ylang-ylang and tuberose take hold. These flowers are heavy and waxy, leaning into the sweet accords without becoming cloying. Labdanum adds a resinous depth that grounds the white petals, steering the scent away from a simple floral profile into something more substantial.

The base brings tonka bean and amber forward, creating a warm, sweet foundation that defines the fragrance. Cedar provides a dry, woody contrast to the rich vanilla and musky tones. This combination results in a scent that feels smooth and rounded. The aromatic facets linger beneath the dominant yellow floral and amber characteristics, adding a subtle freshness to the heavier resins.

Composed by Helene Vonesch, this Zenogati release suits cooler days when a rich floral feels appropriate. It is a straightforward interpretation of its materials, offering a dense blend of ylang-ylang, amber, and tuberose. The sweetness is prominent throughout, balanced only by the soft spicy and woody elements. It finishes on a lingering note of amber and tonka.
