The Yves Saint Laurent L'Homme Eau De Parfum, 100ml, is crafted for the modern man who desires a magnetic, sophisticated, and intense woody-fruity fragrance. Its primary benefit is a powerful, long-lasting scent that evolves from vibrant citrus to deep, warm woods, making it an excellent choice for evening wear or special occasions, though its intensity might be too robust for everyday casual use.
Intense Woody Fruity Fragrance: A sophisticated blend that balances vibrant fruit notes with deep, warm woods, creating a distinct and memorable aroma.
Signature Liquorice & Sophisticated Profile: Embodies a unique and modern masculinity with a refined liquorice undertone, setting it apart.

Noble Vetiver Heart from Haiti: Incorporates high-quality vetiver, providing an earthy and smoky depth to the heart of the fragrance.
Innovative Oakwood Infusion: Distilled from oak cask wood chips by Seguin Moreau in Cognac, this ingredient adds a unique, rich, and sophisticated woody dimension.
Multi-Faceted, Amber Bottle Design: Housed in a warm bourbon-colored glass bottle with an emblematic hexagonal metal cap, reminiscent of a retro Parisian speakeasy and a scented whisky, reflecting elegance and masculinity.

Yves Saint Laurent L'Homme Eau De Parfum is designed for impactful presence and lasting wear, making it suitable for moments when you want to leave a lasting impression. Its woody fruity composition is particularly well-suited for cooler weather and evening events.
Top Notes: The initial spray opens with a vibrant and sparkling burst of Bergamot, Lemon essence, and a distinctive Bitter Orange essence. This creates a fresh yet intriguing first impression.
Heart Notes: As the fragrance settles, the heart reveals aromatic Geranium essence and Lavandin heart, adding a refined floral-herbal warmth that complements the citrus.
Base Notes: The dry-down is where the true depth and intensity emerge. Rich Cedarwood essence, earthy Vetiver, the innovative Oakwood infusion, and subtle Musk essence create a sensual, sophisticated, and long-lasting trail. The oakwood infusion, derived from Cognac cask chips, provides a unique woody warmth with a hint of smoky sweetness.
Pulse Points: Apply to warm pulse points such as your wrists, neck, and behind the ears. The heat from these areas helps to diffuse the fragrance throughout the day.
Moisturized Skin: For optimal longevity, apply to skin that has been moisturized. Hydrated skin holds fragrance better than dry skin.
Do Not Rub: After applying, avoid rubbing your wrists together. This can break down the fragrance molecules and alter the scent's intended progression.
Strategic Application: For a lighter effect, spray into the air and walk through the mist. For more intensity, focus on 2-3 pulse points.
Evening Events: Perfect for dinners, parties, or nights out due to its sophisticated and magnetic character.
Formal Occasions: Its refined profile makes it a strong choice for business meetings, weddings, or black-tie events.
Colder Seasons: The warm, woody base notes shine particularly well in autumn and winter.
Special Dates: Creates a memorable and alluring aura.
Priming the Atomizer: When using for the first time, you may need to spray the atomizer a few times into the air until a consistent mist appears. This clears any air from the tube.
Skin Chemistry: Fragrances interact uniquely with individual skin chemistry. Test a small amount on your skin to see how it develops before full application.
Layering: While this Eau de Parfum is potent on its own, it can be layered carefully with unscented body lotions or complementary scented products to enhance specific notes or longevity. Avoid layering with conflicting strong scents.
Age Group: Designed for adults, embodying a modern and sophisticated masculine appeal.
Gender: Classified as a men's fragrance, aligning with classic masculine scent profiles, yet appreciated by anyone who enjoys its distinct notes.
Store in a Cool, Dark Place: To preserve the integrity and longevity of the fragrance, keep it away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures (heat or cold). A drawer or closet is ideal.
Maintain Upright Position: Store the bottle upright to prevent leakage and ensure the atomizer mechanism remains in good condition.
Avoid Humidity: High humidity, such as in a bathroom, can degrade the fragrance over time. Keep it in a dry environment.
Keep Cap On: Always replace the cap tightly after use to prevent evaporation and protect the fragrance from oxidation.
