Ylem's fragrance for NGC 6302, the Butterfly Nebula in Scorpius: the shed shell of a dying star, gas hot enough to glow around a dust belt cold enough to hold water ice, which the house reads as an inferno colliding with a freezing void. Minty, bitter buchu leaf, lemon zest, apple blossom, tropical fruits and cardamom run into tuberose, narcissus, jasmine sambac and osmanthus, settling on amber, patchouli, incense, wormwood and a space accord. An extrait by Andreas Wilhelm for the Hamburg house, whose every fragrance takes its name from a nebula.

Ylem has sold it on its own shop since 24 September 2026 at €197, the price of the house's 50 ml extraits, with a sample at €10, and the bottle could be ordered there on 29 September. The flacon reads EXTRAIT, and the house sets the notes out in three phases: buchu leaves, lemon zest, apple flower, fruits and cardamom; tubereuse, narcisse, jasmin sambac and osmanthus; amber, patchouly, incense, wormwood and a space accord.

Fragrantica also credits Andreas Wilhelm and files it as a floral; its pyramid matches the house's, except that it splits absinthe from wormwood and names Ambrostar where the house writes amber.

ÇaFleureBon reviewed it on 15 September 2026, ahead of the house's own launch, as Andreas Wilhelm's work for founder Moritz Sulz. Nicoleta Tomsa found it conceptual but "strangely pretty": fruit that reads metallic and atmospheric yet still tempts a bite, and florals hiding sharp little fangs between their petals.
