Yves Saint Laurent Paris is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1983, created by Sophia Grojsman. Paris opens with Hawthorn, Hyacinth, Redcurrant Leaf, and Green, settles into a heart of Linden Tree, Jasmine, Orris, and Violet, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Cedar, and Sandalwood. Yves Saint Laurent's Paris carries a Favourite verdict, a powdery-led wear.

A legendary powdery rose that evokes Parisian romance and poise - delicate yet grand, timelessly feminine, and utterly refined. For those who love vintage floral elegance, nothing else quite compares.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall
Also Works:
Summer

Paris shines in spring with its effervescent rose, violet, and green facets, echoing blooming gardens. Its powdery floral heart works beautifully in mild to warm weather, but can feel a bit airy and less cozy for deep winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Refined yet romantic, Paris is ideal for dates and formal occasions with its classic powdery floral aura. Projection and elegance make it suitable for offices, but its vintage character is less suited for sporty or ultra-casual settings.

About

Paris Eau de Toilette is an icon of powdery floral perfumery, a love letter to the city of lights. Its opening marries sparkling bergamot and green notes with a lush cascade of May rose and violet, soon enveloped by a silk cloud of iris, mimosa, and carnation. The heart blooms into a romantic bouquet, anchored by creamy sandalwood, soft musk, and a whisper of woods and amber. Effortlessly chic, Paris is the scent of springtime walks, pastel bouquets, and timeless grace.
