Yohji Yamamoto Yohji Essential Eau de Toilette 10ml Spray is a travel-sized version of the avant-garde Japanese designer's eponymous feminine fragrance, originally launched in 1998 and reissued in 2013. Chamomile, galbanum and grapefruit open over a luxurious floral heart of rose, ylang-ylang, jasmine and lime blossom, settling into a soft moss, patchouli, musk and labdanum base.
About Yohji Yamamoto
Yohji Yamamoto is one of Japan's most influential fashion designers, founder of his eponymous label in Tokyo in 1972 and celebrated globally for his architectural, often monochromatic, conceptually rigorous ready-to-wear. The Yohji Yamamoto fragrance line carries that minimalist Japanese-Parisian sensibility into perfumery.
Fragrance notes
- Top: chamomile, galbanum, cloves, gardenia, grapefruit
- Heart: rose, lime blossom, ylang-ylang, jasmine
- Base: moss, patchouli, musk, labdanum
Who it's for
Best for fragrance wearers who appreciate niche-leaning floral-chypre fragrances with a contemplative, slightly avant-garde sensibility — wearers looking for an unusual signature beyond mainstream designer launches. The 10ml format makes it ideal for handbags, travel and as a discovery size before committing to the larger bottle.
How to wear it
- Spray once or twice onto pulse points — wrists, neck and inside of the elbows — from roughly 15cm away.
- Allow to dry naturally without rubbing the wrists.
- Best applied 15-20 minutes before going out so the herbal opening softens into the floral heart.
- The eau de toilette concentration is designed to be reapplied; refresh in the late afternoon if needed.
