Victoria Beckham Beauty San Ysidro Drive is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Jérôme Epinette. San Ysidro Drive opens with Saffron and Passionfruit, settles into a heart of Rose and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Amber and Oud. Victoria Beckham Beauty's San Ysidro Drive carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This polarizing scent offers a unique, tropical take on the classic rose and oud combo. Some will adore its juicy brightness, others will find it an uninspired ode to a well-trodden path. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but undeniably sophisticated.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

San Ysidro Drive opens with a surprising burst of tart passionfruit, immediately setting it apart from traditional rose-ouds. This fruity zest is quickly joined by the warm, leathery spice of saffron before a rich, full-bodied rose blooms. As it settles, a smooth, smoky oud emerges, intertwined with delicate jasmine and a deep, comforting amber, creating a luxurious and lasting impression.
