Yatagan is a spicy patchouli, wood and musk accord that reveals a temperament in keeping with this imaginary tableau: bewitching, surprising, warm and bold.
Dominated by cypress, its invigorating herbal accord is pierced by enigmatic frankincense: a bold combination that is confident and not afraid to be provocative. An olfactory signature brimming with exotic accents.
“Yatagan pairs patchouli with absinthe for a masculine signature scent flooded with spiced and exotic accords. ” - Jean JACQUES, CARON's in-House perfumer.
Yatagan is quirky, spicy and exotic. Created in 1976 by perfumer Vincent Marcello, Yatagan by Caron takes its name from a sharp Turkish saber. Sophisticated with an outdoorsy feel, like fresh mountain air in a bottle. Yatagan beautifully combines the rough with the sophisticated in a fragrance where green notes such as pine, geranium, and galbanum playfully team up with musks, mint, and patchouli.
