Yves Saint Laurent L’Homme Cologne Bleue is a Cologne launched in 2018, created by Juliette Karagueuzoglou. L’Homme Cologne Bleue opens with Sea Water, Blood Orange, Grapefruit, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Lavender, Geranium, Apple, and Thyme, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, and Patchouli. Yves Saint Laurent's L’Homme Cologne Bleue carries a Favourite verdict, a patchouli-led wear.

YSL L'Homme Cologne Bleue is a summer 'freshie' that's clean and pleasant, but ultimately forgettable. It smells good enough, though it's hardly groundbreaking, and its weak performance makes it a hard sell at this price point.

About

Imagine a cool sea breeze carrying hints of citrus and spice across your skin. Cologne Bleue opens with a brisk, peppery burst of blood orange and grapefruit, softened by marine nuances and a touch of cardamom. The heart introduces green apple and herbaceous lavender, before settling into a subtle, woody base of patchouli, cedar, and sandalwood. It's a fresh, aquatic aroma that feels light and airy throughout.
