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.

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:

Also Works:
Date

Its gentle, inoffensive character and low longevity make it ideal for office wear and casual daytime activities where you don't want to overpower. For dates or formal events, its subtlety might mean it gets lost in the crowd.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Neroli
  • Neroli Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Oil from Neroli
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

Yohji Senses opens with a bright, zesty burst of lemon and bergamot, softened quickly by the airy, sweet-powdery nuances of neroli and yellow florals. As it settles, a clean, subtle musk emerges, grounding the light, fruity heart. The overall impression is one of gentle, clean freshness, almost ethereal, with a faint woody touch of sandalwood lingering softly on the skin.
