Yves Rocher Pur Desir de Lilas is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2002. Pur Desir de Lilas settles into a heart of Jasmine and Lilac, and dries down to a base of Almond. Yves Rocher's Pur Desir de Lilas carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This one is pure lilac, bottled. It's shockingly realistic for some, transporting them back to childhood gardens, but others found it a bit too linear or even 'old lady' almond. A true love-it-or-hate-it lilac, but mostly love.

About

Pur Desir de Lilas is a fresh, green burst of lilac, so vibrantly true to the flower that it's almost uncanny. A delicate, soft almond note adds a subtle, almost powdery sweetness throughout, preventing the floral from being too sharp. It's a simple, elegant ode to spring, capturing the essence of lilac bushes in full bloom.
