Yves Saint Laurent Y Eau de Parfum is a confident, modern men's fougère for the man who is comfortable being himself. Composed by Dominique Ropion and Claire Liégent in 2018, this 60ml spray pairs juicy apple and ginger with an aromatic sage-and-geranium heart and a polished amberwood drydown.
About Yves Saint Laurent
Founded in Paris in 1961 by Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé, the house revolutionised modern fashion with the introduction of the women's tuxedo and other genre-defying looks. The YSL Beauty fragrance line, produced by L'Oréal Luxe, brings the brand's daring spirit into perfumery — and Y Eau de Parfum is its modern men's signature, themed around the white tee-and-black jacket archetype.
