YSL Libre

Yves Saint Laurent's newest scent for women is Libre, an eau de parfum that captures the essence of a liberated woman in this century's roaring twenties. YSL has spent decades setting fashion trends in women's and men's clothing, and with this perfume they continue their work, at once capturing and creating moods. It's a sunsuous, smooth scent, with top notes of lavender, mandarin orange, petitgrain and currant. The center is a soft floral: lavender, jasmine, orange blossom. The base is vanilla, ambergris, musk and cedar. Libre is expertly crafted to evolve while maintaining the concept. For more on the spirit, see Dua Lipa's provocative advert for Libre.
