Yes I Am

The quiet satisfaction of curling up with a cup of spiced cocoa, where the sweetness of caramel and vanilla is balanced by a hint of spice.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2018 by Cacharel and crafted by perfumers Honorine Blanc and Christophe Raynaud, Yes I Am is a warm and enveloping Oriental Floral fragrance. The scent opens with bright citrus notes of mandarin orange, bergamot, and lemon, creating an initial freshness that contrasts beautifully against the rich sweetness of raspberry and caramel. As it develops, white florals like gardenia and jasmine bring a delicate touch to the heart, while spices such as ginger flower and cardamom add depth and complexity. The base notes of vanilla, sandalwood, and amberwood provide a cozy warmth that lingers on the skin.

How to wear it

Yes I Am has moderate longevity and sillage, so apply it generously to pulse points for best effect. The top notes are fleeting but vibrant, while the base notes settle in over time, making this fragrance perfect for an evening out or a cozy night in.

Christophe Raynaud

Architect first, craftsman second

Christophe Raynaud is a perfumer who describes himself as a craftsman with the sensitivity of an artist. He begins each fragrance with a raw olfactory block, working for hours to shape it as a sculptor would — first as architect, then as craftsman.

“At first, I am the architect, and then I become the craftsman.”
