Released in 1964, YSL Y by Yves Saint Laurent is green, white floral, earthy perfume with woody undertones. Crafted by Michel Hy. Timeless and enchanting green floral heart, well-made and understated chypre, mature and elegant. It opens with aldehydes, galbanum, gardenia, green notes, honeysuckle, mirabelle plum and peach, transitions through heart notes of bulgarian rose, hiacynth, jasmine, orris root, tuberose and ylang-ylang, and settles into a warm base of amber, benzoin, civet, oakmoss, patchouli, sandalwood, styrax and vetiver. Good Projection and performance is average around 3 hours.
