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.
Since its release in 2017, the Y Eau de Toilette has continued to make waves. As its name suggests, it pays tribute to the brand's creator, but also to the men of tomorrow: those of Generation Y. Aromatic and woody, this juice initially relied on lightness and freshness. Today, in 2023, it intensifies and gains in longevity. Sexier and spicier, it depicts the portrait of a man with a strong temperament. It becomes Y Eau de Parfum Intense and reveals itself in a darker bottle than in its original version.
The elegant, clean style of the Y Eau de Toilette
Y Eau de Parfum Intense comes in a modern glass bottle, designed by designer Suzanne Dalton. More specifically, it is a thick glass monolith, resting firmly on a solid base, and surprising for the heavy weight of its glass. In a resolutely masculine style, it is adorned with clean, sharp edges. Its cubic shape, for its part, almost evokes the look of a very urban building. The whole is nonetheless softened by a cylindrical cap decorated with a few chrome details. The bottle of Y Eau de Parfum Intense by Yves Saint-Laurent is an absolute expression of purity, with a very contemporary design.
The Y, a powerful symbol on the bottle of Y Eau de Parfum Intense
Where Y Eau de Parfum Intense sets itself apart from traditional rectangular bottles is at the level of its Y-shaped notch. It proudly bears the name of Yves Saint-Laurent. Moreover, as you will no doubt have noticed, it is also the first letter of the creator's first name. Beyond this aspect, the Y echoes the current generation. This is a fragrance geared toward the future, and this is also felt in terms of visual.
The contrasts present on the bottle of Y Eau de Parfum Intense
As with its scent, Y Eau de Parfum Intense also relies on contrasts in its visual. On one hand, it incorporates several metallic elements, as seen in its spray nozzle or its notch. This gives it an industrial, almost raw style. The metal here echoes masculine strength. However, the glass gives this bottle a lighter, airier and more radiant side. Perfectly cut, it stands as a guarantee of absolute craftsmanship and extreme purity. The man who wears this fragrance therefore has two faces. Do not be fooled by its very raw side and its charismatic power. It also conceals a whole host of subtleties.
The new navy blue color of Y Eau de Parfum Intense
Finally, one last element embodying novelty: the bluish color of Y Eau de Parfum Intense. In its very first version from 2017, this bottle opted for a very light, almost transparent blue. This time, that is not the case at all. To embody its new intensity, Yves Saint-Laurent chose a dark blue, as if emanating directly from a pitch-black night. However, it retains a slightly translucent quality, still allowing us to glimpse the sensual juice it contains.
