Bangla Yasaman

Bangla Yasaman by Isabelle Larignon is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance for women and men. Bangla Yasaman was launched in 2023. The nose behind this fragrance is Isabelle Larignon. Top notes are Buchu or Agathosma, Cardamom, Lemon, Bitter Orange and Bergamot; middle notes are Jasmine, Celery Seeds, Osmanthus, Clary Sage and Saffron; base notes are Indole, Tobacco, Peru Balsam, Fir and Vanilla. For this formula, I had fun doing my job as an illusionist, building a jasmine accord from scratch, then dressing it up with spices and accentuating the celery facet of the cis-jamone. Like curry and immortelle, celery essence reminds me of the warm, sensual scent of skin. And at certain times of the day, jasmine exudes animalic, even visceral facets that are heady and intoxicating. I wanted to highlight these, as well as the tobacco and cold, slightly metallic ashes of jasmine Grandiflorum. I created a jasmine hybrid that has the fruity, animalic aspects of Sambac and the green, tobacco-like qualities of Grandiflorum. The accord is soft ened and warmed by Peruvian balsam supported by green vanilla. Cardamom adds a fresh, creamy top note. Osmanthus flower provides natural support for the leathery and stable notes of paracresol, while adding the velvety smoothness of apricot skin.
