Yves Saint Laurent Lavalliere is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Annick Menardo. Lavalliere opens with Bergamot, Fig, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Musk, Vetiver, and Cashmeran. Yves Saint Laurent's Lavalliere carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

YSL Lavalliere is a polarising fig-rose scent that’s either a glorious, juicy beast or an overpriced skin scent. If you get good longevity, it's a sophisticated head-turner; if you don't, it's just a fleeting whisper.

About

Lavalliere bursts open with a juicy, green fig and tart blackcurrant, lifted by a whisper of bergamot. As it settles, a fresh, elegant rose takes centre stage, softened by geranium and a hint of jasmine. The dry down leaves a clean, musky trail with earthy vetiver and a cashmere-like smoothness, balancing the initial fruity zest with a sophisticated warmth. It's a modern interpretation of a fruity floral, steering clear of anything too sweet.
