Y by Yves Saint Laurent

Y Eau de Parfum is a seductive interpretation on the iconic Yves Saint Laurent white T-shirt and black jacket. It is an intense portrayal of the Y signature. Sophisticated notes of bergamot, ginger, and sage are sharpened by an apple accord.

How to Use

• Fragrance lasts longer when applied to warm areas of the body, such as the inner elbows and behind the knees.
• Avoid rubbing or dabbing after application, this can break down the scent and shorten its wear.
• If applying to wrists, reapply after frequent hand-washing, as water and soap can fade the fragrance.
• For best results, refresh your fragrance every 12 months. Over time, the scent may lose its original character.

Eau de Toilette vs. Eau de Parfum

The main difference is the concentration of perfume oils. Eau de Toilette (EDT) contains around 5–9%, while Eau de Parfum (EDP) has a higher concentration of about 8–14%. This means EDPs are richer, more intense, and last longer on the skin.
