Muse Yves saint laurent 125 ml eau de parfum

THE OLFACTION To capture the essence of his muses, Yves Saint Laurent turned to ink. Thousands of sketches flowed from his hand, each fluid stroke revealing the inspiring silhouettes of his ideal. In those bold, black lines, he translated inspiration into tangible form, immortalizing the essence of his muses and all the creativity he drew from them. Ink is the enigmatic accord chosen for Le Vestiaire des Parfums’s new scented icon: MUSE. A strikingly streamlined composition crafted by Principal Perfumer Marie Salamagne : "The ink reveals enigmatic woody notes, intimate and elegant smoky facets. It veils the skin in subtle dark, metallic tones, slightly iris-y, earthy. For me, the ink takes on the colors of creativity and mystery. It stimulates the imagination." The dusky note is etched onto a precious ingredient Marie Salamagne compares both to paper and skin, for its softness. Carnal and supple, iris concrete offers powdery, buttery, woody and leather facets for a perfect blend. Empowered by a sensual Bourbon vanilla absolute pod – another sublime material crafted for YSL -- the result is what Marie Salamagne calls “a skin scent that explodes”. A fragrant tattoo with an impressive trail, as distinctive and memorable as YSL’s fascinating muses. THE INSPIRATION Elegant. Empowered. Androgynous. Yves Saint Laurent’s muses were like no other.
