Sept Neuf 七寸九 Yà Yǔ 猰貐 is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2026, created by Marion Costero. Yà Yǔ 猰貐 opens with Solar Note, Pepper, and Licorice, settles into a heart of Patchouli and Hay, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Oud, and Oakmoss. Sept Neuf 七寸九's Yà Yǔ 猰貐 carries a Statement verdict, a earthy-led wear.

This isn't for the faint of heart. A bold, divisive earthy-woody beast that demands attention - you'll either love its raw, untamed nature or recoil from its unapologetic wildness. Not a crowd-pleaser, but a statement.

Its potent earthy-woody accords make it far too strong for office wear and too assertive for casual settings. However, its unique and bold character could make an intriguing statement on a date or a distinctive choice for a formal event if applied sparingly.

About

Yà Yǔ 猰貐 opens with a surprising solar note, quickly giving way to the bite of pepper and the intriguing twist of licorice. This unconventional start leads into a deep, earthy heart of patchouli and the dry, golden aroma of hay. The real gravitas emerges in the base, with rugged vetiver, the complex depth of oud, and the damp, mossy embrace of oakmoss, creating a primal, forest-floor impression. It's an olfactory journey through shadowed woods and sun-drenched clearings, full of contrasts.
