Y Eau de Parfum Intense

Yves Saint-Laurent is an atypical figure who never stopped surprising throughout his history. Behind his apparent shyness, he concealed an innovative spirit. A relentless worker, he literally revolutionized fashion until reaching full accomplishment. Now, these are precisely the values found in the Y collection by Yves Saint-Laurent. Launched in 2017, it is enriched with a new, bolder edition in 2023: Y Eau de Parfum Intense.

Y Eau de Parfum Intense, the fragrance of the accomplished man

Y Eau de Parfum Intense by Yves Saint-Laurent represents the entire innovative spirit of youth. It speaks to all those who do not hesitate to break free from tradition to support creativity. However, while the Y Eau de Toilette gave us the portrait of a man on the path to fulfillment, this one now seems to have crossed a threshold. Y Eau de Parfum Intense by Yves Saint-Laurent is the portrait of a man comfortable in his own skin, having achieved his dreams and fully confident in himself. Ready to face new challenges, he dares to follow his passions and his convictions. Y Eau de Parfum Intense by Yves Saint-Laurent is a juice that amplifies creative energy. It seems to hold within it all the exhilaration of the moment one chooses to free oneself from constraints.

The sensual, long-lasting scent of Y Eau de Parfum Intense

Composed by perfumer Dominique Ropion, Y Eau de Parfum Intense by Yves Saint-Laurent is a powerful, sexy and tenacious juice. It takes up the codes of its predecessor, while amplifying them. More specifically, it is an aromatic fougère, opening with a fresh, spicy burst. In its top notes, Y Eau de Parfum Intense by Yves Saint-Laurent combines Ginger, Bergamot and Juniper berries. Then its heart turns greener and more Mediterranean. Its floral breath comes from a duo of Geranium and Lavender. Sage, for its part, amplifies its fougère character. Finally, Y Eau de Parfum Intense by Yves Saint-Laurent gains in longevity and virility in its base notes. Its sillage is incredibly sexy. It relies on the woody breath of Vetiver, Patchouli and Cedar.

The glass monolith of Y Eau de Parfum Intense

Y Eau de Parfum Intense by Yves Saint-Laurent comes in a very clean, contemporary bottle. Its glass bottle forms a monolith of exceptional purity. It is simply decorated with a metallic notch tracing a Y. Combining strength and elegance, this visual pays tribute to the idealized modern man. The bottle of Y Eau de Parfum Intense by Yves Saint-Laurent nonetheless offers a small novelty: it adopts a new, darker blue lacquer. Here, the midnight blue is deep yet translucent. It thus still lets the juice it contains show through. In terms of size, Suzanne Dalton's bottle comes in two dimensions: in 60 ml or 100 ml spray bottles.

Olfastory’s review

It was in 2017 that the house Yves Saint-Laurent decided to dedicate a new fragrance collection to the young Generation Y. Designed for today's men, the Y Eau de Toilette thus made its appearance in the form of a woody fougère. Since then, it has been a highly acclaimed creation, though some individuals still lament a lack of power. If that is your case, rest assured: Yves Saint-Laurent has just modified the formula, giving rise to Y Eau de Parfum Intense. Here is our review.
