34 Ylang Ylang
Fragrance notes
Character
A small wooden kitchen fills with steam as a pot of star anise simmers on the stove. Someone moves through the room wearing LabSolue 34 Ylang Ylang, and the air begins to carry the heavy, golden scent of ylang-ylang petals drifting through the spice. The flower is lush and deep, its yellow floral weight softened by the cool, almost licorice edge of the anise. Copaiba balm adds a resinous, woodsy warmth that settles into the corners of the space, blending with the rising steam to create a balsamic, powdery softness. It is sweet without becoming sugary, the kind of warmth that makes a room feel lived in and quiet.
The fragrance sits close to the skin but changes the atmosphere around the person wearing it. Aurélien Guichard composed a scent where the floral heart and the spicy, woody resin feel inseparable, each one pulling the other toward a gentle, oriental balance. There is a soft spicy vibration that keeps the ylang-ylang from feeling too heavy, while the balm grounds the entire picture in something earthy and calm. It feels like a fragrance meant for someone who enjoys a floral that refuses to be light and airy, who wants the flower paired with something darker and more substantial.
Hands wrap around a warm mug as the scent continues to mingle with the kitchen air, the anise and the balm weaving through the petals in a steady, unhurried rhythm, the entire scene held together by that resinous, balsamic
