Mon Paris Lumière
Mon Paris Lumière by Yves Saint Laurent is a feminine-leaning eau de toilette in the designer price tier. It opens with mandarin and pear, moves into lotus and rose and dries down to patchouli, white musk and cedarwood. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Pear Crisp, watery and green-sweet. Clean and modern.
Heart
- Lotus Pale, watery flower. Delicate and slightly powdery.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
Dry-down
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- White Musk Clean, soft, laundry-like. The 'smells like nothing but better' note.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
