Sora Dora Ylop Extrait

Description

A skin-sensual gourmand built around roasted apricot and osmanthus, released by Sora Dora in 2024. Perfumer Amélie Bourgeois designed Ylop to play on "the echoes between the velvety softness of an apricot and the sensuality of the dermis". It opens with apricot, apple and tea, moves into an osmanthus, rosemary and almond heart, and settles into black sesame, vanilla absolute and Haitian vetiver.

Scent Character

• Fresh: 33%
• Sweet: 33%
• Woody: 22%
• Floral: 11%

Translation: a fresh-sweet gourmand with a woody-floral backbone, no oud or spicy facet in this one, which keeps it lighter than most of Sora Dora's other extraits.
