Launched in 1984 by Givenchy and crafted by Dominique Ropion, Ysatis is a sophisticated chypre floral that blends traditional elegance with modern warmth. The composition opens with aldehydes and citrus notes, creating an immediate sense of crispness and brightness. This gives way to a heart of ylang-ylang, orange blossom, jasmine, and tuberose, which are enveloped in a musky, warm spicy base enriched by civet and sandalwood. Ysatis is a lasting creation that embodies Givenchy's reputation for chic elegance.

Application Tips
Apply Ysatis to pulse points in light layers for a lasting impression. The aldehydes and citrus notes are bright but fleeting, so it's the musky and powdery base that carries through the day, ensuring that Ysatis remains subtle yet unmistakable.

Dominique Ropion is a daring perfectionist, a true inventor. The risks he takes are invariably accompanied by a relentless pursuit of exact olfactory balance and flawless composition. His perfumes are like great architectural feats: in the same way that a bridge, whose seemingly miraculous suspension of weight is in fact a harnessing of counteracting forces, Dominique often balances excessive doses of powerful ingredients with meticulously-measured, subtler accords, until the composition holds up on its own. A good perfume, he likes to say, must always appear obvious.
