Ylang Cananga by Chloé is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance for women and men. Ylang Cananga was launched in 2021. The nose behind this fragrance is Serge de Oliveira.

The Madagascan island of Nosy Be is home to spectacular fields of ylang-ylang that stretch as far as the eye can see. Serge de Oliveira remembers the scent particularly well. In a cheerful family atmosphere, flower gatherers pluck flowers by hand, one by one. They move so precisely, lithely and rhythmically that they almost appear to be dancing. Each one drops Ylang-ylang flowers into their basket, unleashing the incomparable fragrance that inspired the perfumer to create this sensuous, smooth, sunny perfume.

On a paper tester, this is a little less tropical than I expected. Just not what I expected.

Full of flowers, a smooth and elegant floral scent, smooth cream similar to Le Labo Lys 41 but I think it's easier to smell, and the price is also cheaper. I feel like I'm a spring fairy when I wear this fragrance, I'm surrounded by beautiful light and colorful butterflies flying.

Rating: 9/10, so beautiful

This fragrance can be hard to find, but is absolutely worth it!! This is the very best of all the tropical white florals, in my opinion! I love Oud Juane Intense, Hisbicus Palm, Solie Blanc, and the list goes on…. This is the best. Beautifully blended and just light enough to keep it fresh. I want to bathe in it!

I loved le labo lys 41 but refuse to pay their greedy, ever-increasing prices so I have been testing many similar perfumes. I would say that this is the closest to lys. I love this; it has some tuberose and sourness at the beginning from the ylang then becomes creamy and tropical. It's really smooth and high quality.

Very bad quality bottle and spray top - before even opening the box it leaked everywhere in my things and then impossible to remove (even though the longevity of this is not good). Now it does not spray properly and gets on my fingers but does not go on well on skin. Also cannot transport it because of that. I will need to move this to a travel spray container if I want to even use it and then it will get all over everything again. For the bottle and top issues alone, this makes me hate the product which was not cheap. The glue behind the label even got damaged so it’s crooked.

Some greenwashing attempt about the bottle being somewhat sustainable also annoying.

I should have tested this in advance but was travelling and chose to buy a 50mL then and there at the airport...

Again, a warning: the longevity is not good. And the smell has become meh/overripe.

Now cannot stand this really. Will try again later.

dislike it; smells a bit like cheap perfume; the sweetness is a bit over whelming; cause nausea

So beautiful! This might be my favourite ylang scent to date. The opening is bright with tuberose or white florals and a hint of something citrusy that quickly gives way to ylang and yellow florals immersed in creamy coconut. It dries down to a powdery aftermath with a long ylang trail that just lasts forever, especially in my hair. A dreamy summer scent.

Instant "smelled this before" reaction. I think it reminds me a little bit of Gucci Bloom without it being a screechy white floral. Ylang Cananga is smooth, creamy and floral sweet. The bottle is super lux too. Definitely going on my wish list.

I smell white flower in the opening like jasmine or tuberose just for minutes, then the beautiful Ylang-Ylang with a hint of creamy coconuty and little bit bublegummy in the end. For me it's not suntan lotion vibes. Chloe atelier presents the beautiful realistic side of Ylang-Ylang flower

Summer in a bottle! Ylang Cananga is not a complex scent, but it takes you to the beach, to tropical destinations. It is not fruity but very floral and tropical and such a beautiful Ylang Ylang scent that can easily be layered with other scents.

Love Tuberose but with Ylang instead of the Tuberose/white florals!

There's a bit of citrus in the top notes that give it a fresh effervescence, quickly followed by a skin-salty, ever-so-slightly-sour ylang custard cream. (There's absolutely no camphor, which I love in my ylangs but its absence doesn't hurt this at all) It only lasts about 4 hours on my skin, but much longer on clothes/hair.

I was a little concerned it would be too sweet, but it's well balanced and I love it. The sweetness is measured and (the entire cream/sandalwood/cedar base really) very comparable to Love.

I'm not sure that it would be a safe blind buy for someone who isn't a ylang fan; but if you love the "custard pudding" style ylangs honestly I say just get it.

Ylang Cananga is blow your mind, eyes roll back, WOW scent.

Beautiful, creamy, clean, bright, hypnotic, ylang ylang.

I am so glad I purchased this! 💕

(If you liked APOM you will love this. Same kind of ylangylang. not same or similar scent tho)

Anyone selling a decant in the US?? 🤍

I think this is my holy grail ylang fragrance. Smooth, ethereal, and not cluttered up with other notes usually paired with this floral. So beautiful I ordered a backup immediately.

Absolutely beautiful. This is the most beautiful ylang ylang perfume I've ever smelled. It's not plastic-y, not overdone, not overwhelmed by typical 'tropical' notes. This is a pure, fragrant, elegant and sweet ylang scent and I'm head over heels obsessed. Definitely a love at first sniff for me.

This has become my favourite ylang perfume at the moment, including Goutal Songes. Nothing scratchy or irking here just a beautiful soft creamy ylang heavy white floral that is not too banana-like, as some ylang scents can be. Very easy go to perfume that never gives me a headache and is never too much, but still noticeable for several hours.

This ylang is creamy-creamy soft and smooth, like vanilla ice-cream with flowers. It is ylang, but not in its dirty and carnal incarnation like the one by Perris Monte Carlo. A very pleasant light fragrance.

I was always an advocate for good ylang fragrances. I love the flowers and adore the scent they give off. Creamy, deeply soothing, sweet and tropical. It came as a surprise when I saw Chloe releasing the new collection. Needless to say I wanted to get my hands on it and I finally did. I tried all 2021 Chloe releases and Ylang quickly became my favourite. Ylang is well known for its soothing properties and in this composition it keeps being calm and well faceted. I have favoured Lorga and Micallef ylang-ylangs in the past. Guerlain's l'Art et Matiere Ylang offering was a neat love for a while too. But then came Chloe and blinded me by the floral creaminess bordering soft indolic edge. Absolute love. It is not monotone ylang essence, opening features something citric but not bitter, mandarin? Base has soft slightly laconic sandalwood. Very well done.
