Cabane

Cabane by Yves Saint Laurent (2015) is a unisex Oriental Woody that opens with a sharp, resinous blend of elemi, pink pepper, and black pepper. The top is bright and spicy, with the peppery facets tingling before the heart emerges. Olibanum and osmanthus form the core: olibanum's smoky, balsamic incense note is softened by osmanthus's fruity, leathery floralcy. The base is a warm, woody foundation of tonka bean, sandalwood, and patchouli, with tonka adding a sweet, almond-like richness and patchouli lending earthy depth. The drydown is smooth and lingering, with amber and woody accords dominating.

This fragrance suits collectors who appreciate incense-heavy woody scents with a spicy kick. It's versatile for evening wear or cool weather, and its unisex character makes it a shared wardrobe option. Those who enjoy the dry, smoky side of Oriental Woody compositions will find Cabane a compelling, albeit discontinued, addition. Its balance of spice, resin, and wood is nuanced and wearable, though not overly complex. For fans of YSL's more obscure releases, this is a worthy pursuit.
