Y L'Elixir
Y L'Elixir by Yves Saint Laurent is a masculine-leaning elixir from 2024 in the designer price tier. It opens with lavender, moves into geranium and dries down to oud and incense. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Lavender Herbal, clean, slightly medicinal. Barbershop in one note.
Heart
- Geranium Rosy and minty at once. Reads masculine more often than not.
Dry-down
- Oud Resinous, medicinal, barnyard-adjacent wood. The most expensive note in perfumery.
- Incense Smoky, dry and meditative. Adds gravity to anything.
