Yves Saint Laurent Velours is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Carlos Benaïm. Velours opens with Pink Pepper, Tea, and Pepper, settles into a heart of Frankincense, Jasmine, and Orris, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amberwood, and Vanilla. Yves Saint Laurent's Velours carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh spicy-led wear.
A legendary, velvety amber-iris fragrance, so beloved its discontinuation has triggered a fervent quest among collectors. It's a smooth operator, divisive only on whether its 'play-doh' note is part of its charm or a deal-breaker, though most agree it's a masterpiece.

Best Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Best Occasions
Its sophisticated amber and powdery accords, combined with strong performance reports, position it best for date nights and formal events. While too opulent for sport, its smooth character and lack of 'shoutiness' make it suitable for more relaxed, classy casual wear, and even a discreet office setting despite its richness.
