- Travel-ready 3ml, 10ml, 30ml
- Long-lasting scent
Libre Le Parfum by Yves Saint Laurent sets warm spice against clean lavender, a contrast that carries through the whole wear. It opens on bergamot, ginger and mandarin orange, sharpened by a thread of saffron. Orange blossom and lavender meet in the heart, sweet and green at once, before bourbon vanilla, honey, tonka bean and vetiver settle it into something warmer and more resinous. Launched in 2022, it tends to find women who want a floral with some backbone to it, not softness alone. Voters keep it for spring and summer, wearing it through the day and into the evening. Most wearers vote its longevity long-lasting, and most also call the sillage moderate. A 10ml decant is enough to wear it through a few working weeks before deciding on the bottle.
