Which Should You Buy?
A vanilla-led powerhouse of a scent that YSL unforgivably discontinued. This 'elixir' version perfects the original, offering a rich, sophisticated, and undeniably sexy fragrance that still makes people fume over its demise. It’s got that 'IT' factor, a timeless blend that screams opulence.
A universally lovely floral-vanilla-tea blend for those who appreciate easy-going elegance. Not a showstopper, nor a niche oddity, but a truly pleasant and dependable scent. Some find it reminiscent of classic Samsara, but lighter and more everyday.

Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its potent projection and rich, sweet profile make it less suitable for an office setting where subtlety is key. However, its sophisticated and sensual character, bolstered by strong performance, makes it perfect for dates, evening events, and formal gatherings, projecting confidence and allure.
Seasons
Occasions
Its moderate projection and generally pleasant, clean floral profile make it suitable for office wear and casual outings, especially during warmer months. While 'pretty' and 'alluring', it lacks the bold statement for formal events and the freshness for sport. Reviewers note its suitability for everyday summer wear.
