Yves Saint Laurent Tuxedo, Sample
Tuxedo by Yves Saint Laurent is a Chypre fragrance for women and men, introduced in 2015 by perfumer Juliette Karagueuzoglou. This resplendent creation stands as one of the outstanding pillars of YSL's most luxurious range of fragrances. The fragrance opens with the crisp and green aroma of violet leaf, delicately intertwined with the fresh and spicy nuances of coriander and the bright, citrusy zest of bergamot. This trio sets the stage for an intriguing and refreshing introduction that captures attention.
As the scent evolves, the heart reveals a captivating bouquet of rose, black pepper, and lily-of-the-valley. The rose brings a soft, velvety floral elegance, while black pepper adds a warm, spicy edge that enhances the composition’s depth. Meanwhile, lily-of-the-valley lends a delicate and slightly sweet touch, creating a harmonious balance that is both alluring and sophisticated.
In the dry-down, the fragrance unveils its base notes of patchouli, ambergris, and bourbon vanilla. The earthy and woody character of patchouli blends seamlessly with the rich, creamy warmth of bourbon vanilla, enveloping the wearer in a sensual embrace. Ambergris adds a subtle, salty undertone, enhancing the scent’s complexity and longevity. Together, these notes create a magnetic and charismatic aura that leaves a lasting impression.
