Libre Intense by Yves Saint Laurent is a 2020 eau de parfum intense for women by Anne Flipo and Carlos Benaïm, a warmer, deeper version of the Libre floral fougère. Lavender, mandarin orange and bergamot open brightly; lavender returns in the heart beside Tunisian orange blossom, jasmine sambac and orchid, and a base of Madagascar vanilla, tonka bean, ambergris and vetiver gives it a rich, ambery sweetness. Bolder than the original, it comes into its own on autumn and winter evenings.

The community verdict
Sweet and floral, Libre Intense opens with lavender, mandarin orange and bergamot. Orange blossom, jasmine and orchid lead into a base of vanilla, tonka bean and ambergris. Winter suits it best and autumn works too. Women tend to reach for it at night, though daytime works as well.
