Which Should You Buy?
A bold lavender-and-white-floral with plenty of lasting power. Mandarin and blackcurrant brighten the start, and vanilla and ambergris keep it warm to the end. Easy to smell from across a table.
Built on the lavender-and-vanilla contrast of YSL Libre, but sweeter and simpler, and best after dark. Lavender and mandarin sparkle, orange blossom follows, and vanilla, musk and ambergris close.

Performance
Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Citrus and lavender feel bright in spring and early summer, and the vanilla and white flowers add the warmth that carries it through autumn.
Occasions
Assertive but moderate in reach, it works for the office, casual outings and dates, and is elegant enough for semi-formal events.
Seasons
A warm vanilla and ambergris base belongs to autumn and winter, while the aromatic lavender opening keeps it wearable in the in-between weeks of spring.
Occasions
Sweet and fairly bold, it is best for evenings, dates and dressier occasions. It is too sugary for the daily office.
