More of a musk-based fragrance
This is light, delicate, soft - a clean pale yellow blanket of a fragrance, appropriate for the soaps and other bathroom products that this was originally conceived for. Not a powerhouse by any stretch of the imagination, but an easy reach - non-demanding, unobtrusive enough to be worn at work.
It's an almost-powdery, almost-soapy musk, rounded and toned down by a hint of yellow florals, vanilla, and spice. For all that it's named after ylang-ylang, the flower itself seems content to remain in the background - I wouldn't have named it without the listed notes. It's reasonably well blended and "abstract", hard to pinpoint any one thing in particular. It hums along but doesn't sing.
It's listed as a chypre but there's no darkness in this. Even the musk itself leans more towards clean-skin than animalic. It's also vaguely nostalgic - like a fading memory of the 90's, like a paired-down "big" fragrance that's been left to bleach in the sun.
