Identity and Release History. Welcome to the captivating world of Guerlain, where each fragrance is a journey into history and art.

Guerlain Embruns d'Ylang, released in 2019, is a bright representative of the collection L'Art et la Matiere - Fleurs Passionnelles, which is dedicated to passionate flowers and high perfumery craftsmanship.

This release continues the legacy of French elegance, started by Pierre-François-Pascal Guerlain in 1828, and demonstrates how the brand combines traditions with modern interpretations.

Embruns d'Ylang is inspired by the vastness of the sea and exotic flowers, creating a unique atmosphere of freshness and depth.

It perfectly fits into the L'Art et la Matiere line, known for its artistic and complex compositions designed to surprise and inspire true perfume connoisseurs.

Positioning and Wearability. As a unisex perfume water, Embruns d'Ylang offers flexibility and versatility, suitable for both women and men seeking a fragrance with character and emotional depth.

It can be worn in warm seasons—spring and summer—when one wants to feel the coolness of the sea breeze, or in cooler days to add passionate accents.

The fragrance has a moderate sillage that elegantly unfolds up close, making it ideal for daily use, dates, or special occasions where subtle sophistication is important.

If Embruns d'Ylang has captured your heart, we recommend exploring similar fragrances to expand your perfume palette: try Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Ylang & Vanille for a sweeter and more sparkling option, La Maison de la Vanille Vanille Noire du Mexique for the depth of vanilla, or M. Micallef Gaiac for woody and exotic notes. Each offers a unique perspective on the combination of floral and oriental themes.

Authors and Influence. Behind the magic of Embruns d'Ylang is the virtuoso perfumer Thierry Wasser, whose style is known for the masterful balance between classical elegance and innovative accents.

As the creative director of Guerlain, Wasser continues to enrich the brand's DNA by introducing modern elements into timeless collections, making this fragrance not just a perfume, but part of the house's ongoing story.

His work on Embruns d'Ylang strengthens Guerlain's reputation as a leader in creating emotional and artistic compositions, inspiring new fans and maintaining the loyalty of long-time connoisseurs.

This release reflects the brand's pursuit of experimenting with natural materials and complex notes, reaffirming Guerlain's status as an icon in the industry.

Key fragrance characteristics

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The note pyramid of Embruns d'Ylang begins with a refreshing and salty chord, where bergamot and salt create a sea breeze sensation, instantly awakening the senses and adding a bright opening note.

In the heart of the fragrance, passionate and exotic elements unfold: spicy cloves intertwine with delicate jasmine and rich ylang-ylang, forming a rich and emotional bouquet that slowly develops on the skin.

The base of the composition brings comfort and depth thanks to iris, earthy patchouli, and sweet vanilla, which ensure longevity and a warm, mysterious finish.

This harmony of notes from mineral, spicy, sweet, white flower, and woody groups creates a multifaceted experience where each layer gradually unfolds, from freshness to passion, and finally to soothing warmth.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
High (5 to 12 hours)

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.
