Yves Saint Laurent 2011 EDT
La Collection Jazz
Yves Saint Laurent La Collection Jazz is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2011, created by Jean-François Latty. La Collection Jazz opens with Coriander, settles into a heart of Cypress, Geranium, Tarragon, and Artemisia, and dries down to a base of Patchouli. Yves Saint Laurent's La Collection Jazz carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.
A divisive scent, but for those who know, YSL's Jazz La Collection delivers on its promise to evoke the original. It's a proper aromatic fougere with barbershop charm.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
Its moderate sillage and classic, clean profile make it suitable for office wear, while the warm, spicy depth lends itself well to dates and formal events. It's too refined for casual sport, though it can work casually if that's your vibe.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this
