The woody and aromatic scent of L’Homme Ultime

While L’Homme by Yves Saint-Laurent has many assets at its disposal to melt the hearts of women, its fragrance certainly seems to live up to its intangible magnetism. The scent of L’Homme Ultime opens with a genuine burst of dynamism. Its opening is composed of bergamot, a fruit resulting from the crossing of the bitter orange tree and the lemon tree, and grapefruit, a citrus fruit with more bitterness. Then its aromatic facet comes into play through the presence of clary sage and cardamom. Geranium, for its part, brings more elegance to the whole while enhancing its spicy facet. This, then, is a way of affirming that L’Homme Ultime does not lack temperament. The whole then gradually shifts toward more sensuality thanks to the presence of amber woods. Cashmeran, meanwhile, envelops the whole with a veil of softness, while L’Homme Ultime gradually asserts its masculinity through the presence of vetiver. The whole is presented in a bottle emblematic of the collection. It is a heavy, streamlined glass cylinder that lets a pale blue juice show through. The whole is topped with an octagonal metal cap resembling a giant bolt. In sum, the aesthetic of this fragrance is just as elegant as that of its predecessors.
