Yves Saint Laurent 2006 EDT
Cinéma
by Jacques Cavallier-Belletrud
Yves Saint Laurent Cinéma is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2006, created by Jacques Cavallier-Belletrud. Cinéma opens with Cyclamen, Clementine, and Mimosa, settles into a heart of White Amaryllis, Jasmine, and Peony, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, and Vanilla. Yves Saint Laurent's Cinéma carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.
This isn't your average EDT, it's a surprising powerhouse that outshines its EDP sibling for many. A radiant, golden floral vanilla that's been tragically discontinued, making it a highly sought-after gem for those who crave elegance without the overwhelming syrupiness.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
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.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Best Occasions
While quite strong for an EDT, its elegant and non-syrupy nature makes it suitable for office wear if applied lightly. Its impressive longevity and sillage, combined with its luxurious feel, render it perfect for dates and formal events. It's a bit too refined for casual daytime wear.
