Ylang Australe by Givenchy c2014

Ylang Australe by Givenchy: launched in 2014 as part of the L’Atelier de Givenchy Collection, a limited edition luxury fragrance range.









From Givenchy:

Givenchy Couture combines extreme structural precision with freely chosen materials, like Ylang Austral, which truly invites us on a journey. 
Exotic, chic and radical, it envelops the skin with an ultra-voluptuous, woody floral heat. The fragrance kicks off by unveiling notes at once classic and unexpected. The fruity-green touch of mandarin leaves foreshadows the opulence of a luxuriant adventure. Legendary ylang-ylang enchants this olfactory composition with its Creole charm and exotic, gourmand sweetness. An enveloping, woody base of sandalwood also escapes conventional codes to reveal lusciously smooth, sunny accents. 
Somewhere between flower and wood, Ylang Austral’s trail turns the senses upside down. A fragrance synonymous with a dream-like odyssey.

Fragrance Composition:


So what does it smell like? It is classified as a floral fragrance. A sensual,  unisex blend of fresh mandarin orange blossom and its green leaves, lush ylang ylang spiked with a hint of  tropical fruit, resting on a warm, softly sweet base of sandalwood. Certainly, there are more notes in this composition, but Givenchy wants us to focus on the four most dominant notes.
  • Top notes: mandarin orange blossom and leaves
  • Middle notes: ylang ylang
  • Base notes: sandalwood

Bottles:


Available in the following:

  • 100ml Eau de Parfum that retails for £140.00 at Harrod's, or $220 at Saks Fifth Avenue, exclusively.
