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.

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.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Best Occasions

Best For:

Given its projection and the rich, complex profile, Ysayo is best suited for formal events and date nights where its depth can truly shine. While 'easy to wear' is mentioned, its distinct character makes it less ideal for a typical office environment or sporting activities.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

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.
