Ylang Ylang

Lemony-yellow

Flower of the flowers

Reminds me when I clambered

To the top of your tower.

Woody and radiant

Plum-like fruits in fall

Seeped through my clothing

As I longed to be yours.

Ylang ylang

Even after all these years

You take me to that place.

Woody and radiant

Plum-like fruits in fall.

Your fragrance still haunts me

Even ten years on.

Ylang ylang

Even after all these years

You take me to that place.

Ylang ylang

Even after all these years

You take me to that place.

(in Cantonese)

Every time I smell this perfume

I think about myself ten years ago,

Staring at you, wide eyed and teary.

I think even when I'm 100 years old

I won't forget your scent.
