Yves Saint Laurent Y Le Parfum is a bolder take on the original Eau de Parfum, it's more complex and is utterly masculine and sophisticated. It starts with a light sweetness, which is in contrast to the depth of the scent. This is achieved through zesty grapefruit and the fresh lightness of aldehydes. This warms to a vibrant aromatic heart of French lavender with sage and geranium, but it's the dark backdrop that's the true star. The sensual base brings together black cedarwood with patchouli, incense and tonka bean for a dark, smoky woodiness that lingers beautifully on the skin. Top notes are grapefruit, ginger, elemi, aldehydes. Heart notes are French lavender, sage, geranium. Base notes are American black cedarwood, olibanum, patchouli, tonka bean, incense.   Why it's Escentual: We love when a brand takes an already captivating scent and gives it even more depth and complexity, and that's exactly what Yves Saint Laurent has done with this fragrance. Y Le Parfum is a darker and woodier take on the original, making it perfect for your new signature evening scent. We love the way it plays with sharp citrus and envelops it in a cocoon of dark woods and sensual musky tones for an undeniably seductive and masculine scent. We imagine it would make the perfect companion to a clean and crisp black shirt. And we have to tell you about the bottle. The weighted rectangle flacon takes inspiration from its Y predecessors, but it's now dressed in an elegant glossy midnight black. Its edges are sleek and sharp, with the signature Y cut out of the glass.
