The Story
Why it exists.
The beginning
Yamuri launched in 2024 as part of Coyotl's expanding catalog of compositions. The house operates under the creative direction of Aneberg Prz Lui, who is credited as the perfumer for Yamuri. Its note structure reflects an intentional duality: bright citrus and confectionery on the surface, darker materials buried underneath. The opening brings blood orange and sweetness forward in a buoyant, almost playful first impression, while the base of civet, Vietnamese oud, and white tobacco waits underneath with weight and texture. On skin, the confectionery elements never collapse into pure sugar; they hold their shape against the animalic and roasted tones pulling from below. The milk and caramelized layers weave through the heart, softening what the darker base materials might otherwise impose.
What makes Yamuri unusual is the collision at its center. Cotton candy and milk at the heart, surrounded by civet, Vietnamese oud, and white tobacco at the base. Here, the sugar is anchored by animalic musk and dark roasted coffee rather than leaning on more familiar sweet foundations. The gentleness of cotton candy is preserved, but its context shifts entirely: no longer carnival treats, but something more private, more charged. The blood orange threading through the heart bridges fruit and floral without committing to either, keeping the composition restless.
The evolution
The first ten minutes belong to peach and passion fruit, bright and almost fizzy, a lemon zest edge that sharpens everything. Then the cotton candy arrives, clouding the citrus with something soft and milky, the orange blossoms adding a soapy warmth underneath. Thirty minutes in, the leather makes contact: suede first, dry and tactile, then white tobacco curling in. The civet starts as a murmur, warm and slightly dirty, like skin in a warm room. By the two-hour mark the sugar has receded significantly, and what remains is the oud, the coffee, and the civet, grown louder together. Six hours later, on fabric, the drydown is mostly that animalic base: civet and suede with a phantom sweetness, the cotton candy reduced to a memory. Moderate sillage, intimate projection that pulls people in close rather than broadcasting.
Cultural impact
Yamuri sits within Coyotl's growing catalog as a composition defined by contrast rather than compromise. The civet and oud base gives it a raw, animalic edge that contrasts sharply with the confectionery opening, setting up a tension that runs through the entire wear. Cotton candy and milk at the heart, surrounded by civet, Vietnamese oud, and white tobacco at the base, with blood orange threading citrus brightness through the middle. The sugar here is anchored by animalic musk and dark roasted coffee, which shifts the sweetness away from comfort and toward something more charged.
The House
CoyotlCoyotl is a fragrance house that emerged in the early 2020s, drawing deep inspiration from the flavors, traditions, and spiritual heritage of Mexico. The brand constructs its olfactory narratives around ingredients and concepts rooted in Mesoamerican culture, from pre-Hispanic deities to beloved traditional beverages. Each release carries a Nahuatl or Spanish-derived name that signals its cultural orientation, inviting wearers into a sensory space that feels both intimate and expansive. The house operates with a focused output, releasing a handful of new compositions each year rather than flooding the market with volume. Aneberg Prz Lui serves as the nose behind the collection, translating cultural memory into liquid form across the brand's catalog.
