Y Le Parfum: The latest new release from Yves Saint Laurent Yves Saint-Laurent was a reserved yet audacious figure, whom nothing destined for such a career. Coming from a modest childhood, he owed his salvation only to his incredible determination. Today, though this great designer has left us, the house bearing his name regularly pays tribute to him.
In 2017, the house Yves Saint-Laurent gave birth to a new masculine fragrance named Y. Since its release, every year, this juice for men has been enriched with a new composition, like a different derivative of its scent appearing each season. Sometimes fresher, more magnetic or more powerful, Y regularly changes its face, thus suiting every masculine personality. In 2021, it bets on depth and intensity. It becomes Y Le Parfum, endowed with an aromatic, refreshing and long-lasting breath. But what about its bottle?
The elegant modernity of the house Yves Saint-Laurent in a bottle
Y Le Parfum comes in a bottle that beautifully matches the spirit of the house Yves Saint-Laurent. Its bottle is both minimalist and very streamlined. Particularly refined, it is perfectly in line with the Yves Saint-Laurent wardrobe. Because the house has always been praised for its choice of noble fabrics and dark tones, it is precisely this elegance that is found in this new bottle. Y Le Parfum seems almost designed like an elegant Yves Saint-Laurent tuxedo. From then on, Y Le Parfum draws us into a register as refined as it is masculine.
The sturdy, virile stature of Y Le Parfum
Y Le Parfum comes in a rectangular bottle, asserting its virility through heavy, thick glass, a mark of its refinement. Its edges, however, are softened to give this mysterious man a certain touch of tenderness. At its top, a finely sculpted cap evokes the look of a signet ring. In its overall restraint, the bottle of Y Le Parfum stands as a symbol of strength.
The new satin black color of Y Le Parfum
When it first launched, Y Le Parfum was characterized by a light blue shade synonymous with freshness. This time, that has completely disappeared, in favor of an opaque black. Moreover, this shade only recalls once again the appearance of an Yves Saint-Laurent suit. Some also see in it a rock 'n' roll, rebellious side, a perfect match for the face of the campaign of this perfume: the musician Lenny Kravitz. With its satin finish, the black of the Y Le Parfum bottle plays with light and makes the whole visual more flamboyant. This only amplifies its natural elegance.
The famous notch of the Y collection by Yves Saint-Laurent
Finally, the ultimate element common to the entire Y collection by Yves Saint-Laurent: its metallic notch. A metal band appears on its front face, bearing the name Yves Saint-Laurent. It is connected to an unexpected Y on its side face. Of course, this is no accident. It echoes the name of this perfume, but also the first name of the couturier Yves Saint-Laurent as well as generation Y, the one this fragrance is more specifically aimed at.
