Puredistance Ysayo is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2025, created by Antoine Lie. Ysayo opens with Saffron, Galbanum, Artemisia, and Chamomile, settles into a heart of Celery Seeds, Jasmine, Geranium, and Thyme, and dries down to a base of Leather, Vetiver, Patchouli, and Labdanum. Puredistance's Ysayo carries an Acquired verdict, a aromatic-led wear.

This one's a connoisseur's dream; a modern take on vintage masculine powerhouses that pays homage without feeling dated. Rich, buttery smooth, and unapologetically bold, it’s a commitment for those who appreciate true artistry over fleeting trends.

About

Ysayo opens with rugged, earthy galbanum and bitter artemisia, softened by a hint of saffron's elegant dryness and chamomile's subtle purple hue. As it settles, a unique celery seed note emerges, mingling with green thyme and jasmine, building to a deeply textured base of refined patchouli and rich, buttery leather. It evokes a damp forest floor, both wild and sophisticated.
