Y

by Yves Saint Laurent

4.2|1964|Female

Y by Yves Saint Laurent, launched in 1964, is a distinguished women's fragrance. This classic chypre is celebrated for its sophisticated and elegant character. The composition opens with an invigorating blend of aldehydes and green notes, including galbanum and hiacynth, alongside the sweet hint of peach and mirabelle plum. Its heart unfolds into a luxurious floral bouquet, featuring jasmine, Bulgarian rose, gardenia, honeysuckle, and tuberose, enriched by ylang-ylang and orris root. The base provides a deep and enduring foundation of oakmoss, patchouli, vetiver, and sandalwood, warmed by amber, benzoin, styrax, and a subtle touch of civet, creating a memorable and refined aroma.
