Happy, that is definitely the key characteristic of Hapyang by Pierre Guillaume Paris!
The sunny ylang-ylang ingredients makes this perfume a sparkling floral amber. Aldehydes lift the magnolia and ylang-ylang, creating a clean, yet sweet powdery feel. The wood of the pear tree, benzoin, and vanilla give the perfume a subtle sweet and fruity touch.
Perfumer Pierre Guillaume was fascinated by a series of photos of a dancer in a cloud of powder by photographer Jeffrey Vanhoutte. This inspired Pierre to capture the aldehydes in a cloud of powder.
Pierre Guillaume on Hapyang: “An explosion of powder and floral sparkles, with an endless trail. A delicate floriental breath, enveloping the skin like a precious veil of shimmering silk.”

Creations from perfumer Pierre Guillaume all have a strong character. This classically schooled chemist is an independent perfumer who works from his studio in Clermont-Ferrand, France. The use of innovative ingredients shows that he has a solid foundation in chemistry and a hunger for creation. One of these innovations he uses is a process called photo-refining: the flattening of olfactory peaks via ultraviolet radiation. This technique gives his perfumes their special characteristics, for example the characteristic liveliness in 02 Cozé or the melancholy in 05 l'Eau de Circé.

You can recognize his personal style in his perfumes, with high-quality scents that remain perceptible on the skin for a long time without overpowering.
