Yves Saint Laurent: Elle – An individual and bold scent from Yves Saint Laurent.

This beautiful passionate perfume by the house of Yves Saint Laurent arrived on the market in Autumn 2007, hoping to win the hearts of young and modern girls. Tender and distinguished fragrance Elle, designed by two renowned noses, Olivier Cresp and Jacques Cavallier, brings joy with luminous crisp notes of lemon and litchi on peony petals.

Its heart unites Jasmine Sambac, rose and freesia, with youthful accords of pink berries, while the base caresses woody notes of vetiver, patchouli, and cedar.

The face of the fragrance is young and extravagant 18-year-old Coco Rocha. The advertising campaign, as well as the bottle design, can say a lot about the perfume: it is a young, but pretentious fragrance within the frame of the “modern classic.”

Fragrance Characteristics:

The surprise of the floral begins with pink berries – it ripens at the centre of the perfume to audacious effect. Top notes of lychee and peonies brighten the accord, while the base of patchouli, vetiver and woods deepen it. Breezy yet earthy, womanly yet young. Contained in a tempered crystal flacon.

Fragrance Notes:

• Top – Amalfi Lemon, Peony, Litchi
• Middle – Jasmine, Pink Pepper, Rose, Freesia
• Base – Vetiver, Patchouli, Cedar, Ambrette (Musk Mallow)
