I first saw this perfume when the
advertisement was broadcast on television last year (2019). Dua Lipa is the model/spokesperson
for the scent. I really wanted to test it as I got a sexy vibe from it, but I
only looked up the notes when I received the sample.
It is Libre by Yves Saint Laurent
and it is a 1.2ml spritzer sample of the eau de parfum.
“The first floral lavender for a
singular trail like a breath of freedom. The iconic orange blossom flower from
Morocco, a luminous and sensual white flower, twisted by the lavender from
France, an ambiguous flower often considered as masculine, bringing boldness,
freshness and texture. A fragrance as a shout of freedom, the freedom to live
everything to the fullest.”
It contains a mixture of notes such as; Mandarin Orange, Lavender, Black Currant, Petitgrain, Jasmine, Orange Blossom, Madagascar Vanilla, Cedar, Ambergris and Musk.
I wasn’t expecting to like this scent
after I read what notes were in it, as it was described as a floral lavender
scent. I was surprisingly wrong, it smells absolutely stunning! I don’t really
detect the lavender (good for me), but I do smell the vanilla and a mixture of
the other floral notes. It kind of almost reminds me of a fresher and fruitier
version of Loverdose by Diesel. It does smell sexy, but in a fresh and not dark
and woody way. There is the right balance of musk and it is not overpowering It
is mostly tailed to women, but I think it could actually be unisex as it is not
too fruity. I wouldn’t mind smelling this scent on a man! I would 100% buy a
bottle of this and highly recommend that you give it a sniff. I won’t be
purchasing it straight away though, as I am on a no buy for perfumes as I have
some to use up and I have not long purchased a 100ml bottle of Avril Lavigne
Black Star EDP!
You can buy it in 10ml (£N/A/$30), 30ml
(£56/$78), 50ml (£78/$104) and 90ml (£100/$130) and it is available at places
such as; YSLBeauty.co.uk and Sephora.
