Descripción
Caron Yatagan is a green aromatic fragrance for men. Launched in 1978, this composition was created by perfumer Vincent Marcello. The top notes unfold a fresh accord of pine, galbanum, basil, watercress, lavender, and mint. The heart reveals an herbaceous and earthy character with absinthe, oakmoss, oak, and patchouli. Finally, the base notes settle into a warm and persistent foundation of castoreum, woods, incense, and musk.

Race, strength, and great class.
Highly recommended.
Human marvel. A regal presentation and incredible scent; I can’t take it off. Soon I’ll buy a bottle and hope to get lucky and find it. It’s fantastic, only for winners.
A human marvel. I was gifted a sample and the scent is incredible; I can’t stop wearing it. I’ll be buying the bottle soon and hope to find it. It’s fantastic, truly for winners only.
Bought in Paris (2013) and a pity: the reformulation has ruined this gem. The original lasted all day, now it’s gone in ten minutes. If you can, seek out the old batch or a modern bottle without an engraved serial number. What a shame.
Timeless and masculine Joyazo. Warm, temperamental, and bold, with not a single hint of sweetness or vanilla; it radiates pure masculinity. It may clash with current tastes for being ‘hard’, but I’m fascinated by it. Medium longevity, a trail that’s present without being intrusive. Ideal for cold weather and formal occasions. An 8/10.
It’s one of my favourites and favours, its scent is highly unique and wonderful… wherever you go you leave your trail, it’s a scent that inspires strength, sex, virility, power, class, wisdom and above all elegance… it has a lot of personality, it’s a jewel and a work of art of French perfumery… I use it little because I feel it’s running out, hehe… I give it 100 points.
One of my favourites. A unique, wonderful scent that leaves a mark: it inspires strength, virility, power, class, wisdom, and elegance. It has great personality, is a jewel, and a French work of art. I use it sparingly because I feel it fades quickly. I give it 100 points.
For a long time I searched for Yatagan by Caron and by chance I found in my belongings a nearly full bottle with a brown container. In reality the fragrance lasts all day; it would be good if they made it again with the previous formula.
To be honest I expected more, it smells very much like an old man’s perfume. I expected more from Caron and I don’t know if my pH isn’t compatible with this lotion, but it only lasted three hours. I didn’t like it, rating 4/10.
To be honest, I expected more from this fragrance; it smells like my grandfather’s cologne. I don’t know if it’s my pH or what, but it faded after just three hours. It didn’t convince me, so I’d give it 4/10.
As many say, I bought it 20 days ago and since they changed the formula of the original, this new one smells horrible, doesn’t last at all and is watery and pale. It went from coffee to yellow. I don’t recommend it because I have the new formula; I didn’t know the old one, the one they said was delicious.
A piece I consider the bold sibling of Quorum. Less green and more animal, but both live near the lagoon of a shifting sand forest. Recommended, but use with respect; it’s a small great crocodile.
I just bought it and used it once; I expected more. It didn’t seem like much to me, I applied it once and it neither smells bad nor good, nothing, it goes unnoticed. I felt a Halston Z14 style. I’ll apply it again to see, I don’t know. For now I give it 3 out of 10.
One of my favourites to kick off autumn. Yatagan has seventies coordinates; it’s a difficult proposal and one that requires acquired taste, it stands apart from everything else and it’s a miracle it’s still in production. The opening is herbal, bitter, earthy, rough green, dark and twilight. More than a perfume, it’s an act of faith. Loaded with notes reminiscent of the opening scenes of an eighties horror film: the tranquil urbanisation at dusk. The pine is threatening, nothing Mediterranean, but the pine of a forest where you’ve got lost and no one finds you. It settles quickly on the skin. It’s not a powerhouse or a beast (never has been, despite the reformulations). The projection is not bad, neither timid nor exuberant. It defines itself more as a skin scent with leather nuances, glandular, biological and animal, cut against the forest and a smoky incense. Night bonfires, dangerous nature, wet earth and little moonlight. It’s very masculine, but not the Sean Connery of 007, but rather John Wayne. Mature things, serene behaviour without nonsense. Very suitable for bold women. Although it doesn’t seek stellar projection, the duration is ‘forever’. If you wear it and don’t like it, you might have a bad day. Yatagan is from another era, for people for whom the present feels out of reach.
Neither do I like it nor dislike it. Green, herbal and woody opening with pine and tarragon. It has a bitter touch but then it becomes woody. You can detect patchouli and oakmoss, and a leather note adds class. The dry down is good, with leather leading, but the opening is a bit harsh for me. Ideal for autumn and winter, day and night. Long-lasting longevity, moderate sillage.
I’m running out and need another bottle, what do I do??? 🙁 and I can’t find it where I am 🙁
Unique! Yatagan was 25 years ahead of its time. It’s spectacular, the only one that blends sweet and salty. It’s penetrating, impactful, sweet and animalistic. You must get hold of it, tame it and understand it to wear it with confidence.
After a long journey, a lost monastery in the forest offers shelter. Your senses are confused by fatigue and the multitude of perceived notes: pine, lavender, moss, mint… You seek rest and think of that brilliant combination, masculine, not suitable for everyone and for special moments when you want to make a difference. Yatagan needs a man without complexes, strong, who does not mind others’ comments. An old detective comes to mind, respectful of the law but capable of taking another path if necessary. It is not easy nor harmonious, but if you grasp its essence, you will have an excellent companion for the grey, cold months. Thanks, Bofifa.
Yatagan is masculine: man with whisky and a leather chupa. Smells of herbal liquor and genuine animal musk, not synthetic detergent-like. Austere, characterful, and mature (not old-fashioned). The original longevity was outstanding and the trail was felt for miles. Now the reformulation is a crime: they’ve sweetened it and it lasts nothing. No excuses needed for ruining masterpieces. Recommended for all seasons except summer and daytime wear.
Caron Yatagan is masculine: the man with a whisky glass and a leather chupa. It smells of herbal liquor and real musk, not that synthetic white musk that smells of clean laundry. Real musk is the kind from deer. Yatagan is austere, characterful, classic, and mature (not old; maturity is an attitude). Longevity was notable; I tried it years ago. The trail, according to my mother, was felt a league away, although I did not notice it due to saturation. Now they say it has been reformulated and it does not last a sigh. It is a crime against the masterpieces of perfumery. They hide behind preserving species or allergens, but it is not an excuse to ‘load’ a fragrance. I recommend it for all seasons except summer and for daytime use.
When I was young, my father used to hide it between his shoes to apply it when I wasn’t looking. They say it is an adult aroma, but absolutely not: it is super masculine and pleasant. I bought two bottles, one for myself and another I returned to my father, very happy. I also love it for this and many other things.
My fascination with Caron lies in its jewels that marked perfumery. I have tried almost everything, except Yatagan, which was always the thorn in the house’s blooming bouquet. It is not bad; it is unknown, and trying something new always generates doubt. Just as meeting an attractive person, the chemistry between skin and spray is unpredictable. Yatagan is spicy, warm, and smoky. I tried the current version and there was no chemistry. I am capricious; I wanted it youthful and handsome. A fractal arrived in time: a sample in an old box with miniature pine and yatagan. I tested it instantly: it opens with a blast of bergamot, lavender, and artemisia. It draws a spicy, piquant imprint. The heart of carnation and geranium gives creaminess, alongside a moderate pine reminiscent of classics like Agua Brava but with an oriental woody twist. The musk appears, along with coconut, styrax, amber, incense, and leather with an animalic, pheromonal touch. It has everything to be a beast of projection, but it prioritises quality over tenacity. It is invasive due to the spices (oregano, etc.) but does not project beastily. The leather appears at the end, mixed with everything; the incense is restrained, and the animalic notes give that seventies touch. It has several textures; the top notes are still felt while the essence deepens. It is not for everyone, although the vintage Z14 is easier to wear, Yatagan seems interesting to me for special occasions. It does not disappoint; the quality is extreme. The current version is not bad, but it has a rare, crunchy leather that doesn’t quite close for me. Another Caron jewel.
This is truly for adults. It’s not enough to dress or act the part; you have to ‘be’ it. I’m not talking about machismo, tattoos, or James Bond walks. The name Yatagan comes from Turkish, referring to a short saber with an ivory hilt and fine woods, used by the Janissaries. It suits this fragrance perfectly: you don’t give a yatagan to a child. It begins herbal and spicy with pine, mint, and resins, mutating into an animalic, woody patchouli with oakmoss. There is no sweetness or florals here; it is earth, brambles, and business. It doesn’t project much, don’t try to make it do so, but the longevity is excellent.
Truly for adults. It’s not enough to pretend; you have to be the part. The name derives from the Ottoman saber, a serious weapon. Spicy herbal notes, pine, and mint evolve into animalic patchouli, woody, and oakmoss. No sweetness or florals. It’s earth, business, a serious man. It doesn’t project much, so don’t try to make it do so or you’ll be disappointed, but the longevity is excellent.
The original formula is unforgettable, masculine, and adored by women who love classic, confident men. It is not for metrosexuals or those obsessed with appearing young. It is for men who respect themselves in their attire and their history. Unfortunately, the new formula is terrible: it smells like Dove soap, Skip detergent, and cabaret incense. Nothing like the original. This one is for metro men who want to hide their creams. Shame on Caron.
Bought blind due to my love of classics. Smells vintage, green, spicy, and masculine. Imagine an autumn forest or a man at home with bottled nature. Nothing sweet or soapy; it’s classic and bold. For the intrepid, a real treat.
My love for classics led me to buy it blind. It smells vintage, green, spicy, manly, and bold. It evokes a forest, an autumn walk, a man in his home, bottled nature. Current tastes seek the sweet, but here there is none of that, nor that soapy tone found in other contemporaries. It is classic, vintage, with an ‘old-man’ smell, yet it fits perfectly into modern life. For the intrepid, a real treat.
A beauty: pure masculinity, unadorned, boreal, rugged, and primitive. The opening hits you with pine, absinthe, oregano, galbanum, petitgrain, and castoreum; everything is green, coniferous, and wild. Although it is intense, it is not aggressive or piercing, always balanced. Do not expect a powerhouse; it is for personal enjoyment if this style is yours. The dry-down is a beautiful blend of fir, musk, subtle leather, and resins that last hours on the skin.
A perfume forbidden for children and pusillanimous men: an old-school essence in its purest form. The opening is dirty and animalic, but it settles with time to reveal a glorious, masculine, and elegant dry-down. A 10 out of 10 if you like fougères and are looking for something at a good price, don’t hesitate.
Green, aromatic, and with that classic cut that allows no middle ground: it’s masculine, characterful, and mature. I love it from start to finish, without a single sweet note leaking through. It opens with pure pine, sitting somewhere between a fougère and a barbershop scent, hooking you with its unique narrative. It has a clean, evocative touch; I feel relaxed in a damp forest enjoying the view. As it dries, you can detect musk and rough woods. Ideal for enjoying at home with the family, it makes me feel that mature father. Good price, poor performance, but highly recommended for vintage lovers.
