Yohji Yamamoto pour Femme

Yohji Yamamoto pour Femme is a refined, complex fragrance with a delicate herbal and aromatic opening, anchored by chamomile, cardamom, and citrus. It evolves into a soft, floral heart of jasmine and Turkish rose, balanced by warm amber and musk in the base. The scent carries a subtly powdery, slightly soapy quality that some find unusual or even unpleasant, particularly on dry skin, which can flatten or mute the effect. Despite the controversial notes, many appreciate its quiet, elegant presence — especially during spring and autumn — and its enduring dry-down, which lingers with a serene, almost meditative warmth. It is best worn during the day, and its moderate sillage makes it suitable for more reserved settings, like the office or intimate occasions. While its lasting power varies greatly depending on skin chemistry, many who appreciate the fragrance find it long-lasting and deeply nostalgic. Its discontinuation adds to the sense of rarity and cherished memory for those who encountered it in its original form.
