It boggles my mind that this frag still has no reviews! Ylang Tabac is a buttery rich and warm take on the yellow flower ylang ylang. I’d call it a floral gourmand, the ylang ylang and jasmine flanked by vanilla, tonka, and powdery almond. But the mouth-watering notes are balanced by dry oakmoss, cool orris, earthy patchouli and sweet tobacco, and just a touch of animalic castoreum and musk. I love castoreum (synthetic and otherwise), but only as a grace note in the polyphony of a fragrance. Any more than that and you get a skanky, sweaty cacophany (emphasis on “caca”!). In Ylang Tabac, the note whispers through the vanilla-almond and its skatolic bass echoes the indolic contralto of the flowers. It’s warming and grounded and an instant mood-booster.
It wears remarkably well, too. One spray on my wrists (shared with the neck) lasts all day. It radiates strongly for the first hour or so but then fades to a moderate projection, fading to a skin scent by the afternoon. There it lingers, detectable even until I shower the next morning.
This is a near-perfect autumn fragrance.
