Trudon Elae is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Yann Vasnier. Elae opens with Neroli and Apple, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood and Benzoin. Trudon's Elae carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This one's a bit of a mixed bag; while some adore its modern elegance and high-quality floral blend, others find it a bit too subtle, even 'unfinished', for the price tag. Expect a soft, sophisticated experience that leans into classic white florals.

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.

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

  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Neroli
  • Neroli Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Oil from Neroli
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

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

Elae opens with the bright, green zest of neroli, quickly softened by the creamy, heady embrace of jasmine and ylang-ylang. The exotic floral heart unfurls gracefully, settling onto a smooth, warm base of Australian sandalwood, providing a subtly rich and comforting finish that lingers beautifully on the skin.
