Crafted exclusively for YSL, the saffron accord is at the heart of the fragrance and harvested directly from our Ourika Gardens in Morocco, a tribute to Mr. Saint Laurentās favourite āfleur de feuā, the saffron flower. The spice of the key notes is set against a smooth and velvety base which fuses delicious vanilla and honey with warm vetiver for depth and intensity. Crafted by master perfumers Anne Flipo and Carlos BenaĆÆm. - Top notes: bergamot, mandarin, ginger, saffron accord - Heart notes: orange blossom, diva lavender heart, lavandin heart - Base notes: vanilla bourbon, honey accord, vetiver BOTTLE The signature LIBRE bottle is designed to reflect the powerful character of the fragrance.

I love the scent of lavender and whatever else is in this stuff. It smells extremely sophisticated, smooth, not sweet, nothing floral, yet more mandarin orange with a slight amber scent. When I wear this I am going out and dressed nice. I feel this perfume is strong, it last for about 8hrs on me with out applying extra sprays throughout the day. I got it on sale for about 100 bucks so I am a happy camper. This is not my signature scent but I lean more towards this scent during the fall and colder months. YSL did great with the Libre line, Iād highly recommend for women of all ages! This could be a versatile scent as well however it leans toward being more feline. My partner reaches for it from time to time and I canāt stand it! On my 2nd bottle and Iām hoping it ...Ā MoreI love the scent of lavender and whatever else is in this stuff.

My daughter had received a bottle of this parfum as a gift. When she brought it home, she said "mom, you have to try this, I think you're going to Love it". Well, she was RIGHT! Everything about this is AMAZING, especially the longevity. This has the perfect balance of sweet and spicy, and it lingers for hours!The only "downside" I could personally find is the price, just because it's more than I normally spend. However, after trying it twice and seeing how well it blends with my chemistry and the longevity of wear, I was sold. When I bought this, it was on sale so it was an easier decision for me to splurge on the large bottle. I also Love the idea of customized engraving, it makes it that much more of a thoughtful and personalized gift.I personally wear parfum ...Ā MoreMy daughter had received a bottle of this parfum as a gift.

I have well over 100 bottles of parfum, but if I could only choose one, THIS would be THE ONE! Please don't ever change the formula, it's literally PERFECT the way it is!

So I fell in love with Libre Intense. I noticed that a lot of folks compared Intense with Le Parfum. Some said the two are so similar, you donāt need both. Others said Le Parfum is so spicy and unique, it stands alone. My take is this: you truly *donāt* need both. They are just that similar. Le Parfum does have the added ginger (which I can smell) and honey (which I canāt smell). Folks say itās sweeter, but I feel like Intense is smoother and more pleasing. They both dry down similarly, but, for me, Intense is superior. If you *love* ginger, however, this may be your jam. For me, Intense is very feminine; however, the ginger in Le Parfum makes that flanker feel more masculine/cologne like.

My biggest disappointment would be the length of time this perfume lasts/strength and that the cap came scratched. Also seemed like the box was thrown together everything was on one side of the box. This was my first time buying a luxury perfume and for the amount I spent I had higher expectations. I was very excited to receive it and that they engrave it for free. The two free samples are cool too but I was going to get three before signing in which was odd to me. Why would I get less for being a member? Seems backwards. The engraved font also looked different that the picture at checkout and I liked that one but the actual engraving font was corny looking. The loose shavings from the glass also werenāt taken off which seems like a easy step for a polished product. ...Ā MoreMy biggest disappointment would be the length of time this perfume lasts/strength and that the cap came scratched.

When the Libre came out I jumped at it! I was originally a Black Opium girl and had the original and extreme but once it became too popular and common I had to jump ship. Iāve tried all versions of the Libre and on my skin I like the Intense the most shortly followed by the Le Parfum and then in third place the original. Why? Well with my skin chemistry, fragrances always smell very musky and sultry. The heart notes in the Intense shine where as the le Parfum fall flat. Iām one of those that can wear a lot of unisex or menās colognes if that helps paint the picture. I was really excited for the Saffron accord in the Le Parfum because 540 smells amazing on me because of the Saffron but it fell short here for me. The vanilla in the Intense works better on my skin and ...Ā MoreWhen the Libre came out I jumped at it!

Remember everything smells different on everyone but any of the Libre fragrances are a win in my book. I finished all of them when I was in my discovery period and would happily accept any as a gift. Personally, when purchasing on my own - the Intense is my girl!
love my items that I purchased. I get so many compliments and I highly recommend this fragrance to all my friends. Definitely would be buying this again so refreshing and sexy as the same time loved I first stumbled upon The Fragrance Shop many years ago. They custom made a scent for me at the time that I absolutely loved. Life happened and I lost track only to recently returned once I remembered how better I enjoy the perfume oil over alcohol based consumer colognes. I purchased their EROS Type for Men in oil, lotion, bath gel, and aftershave. The smell is intoxicating and just as I like it. EROS Type is clean, fresh, and sweet but MASCULINE, without being obnoxious. Most of all the sillage is significant giving you your moneyās worth. I use all four products daily ...Ā Morelove my items that I purchased. I get so many compliments and I highly recommend this fragrance to all my friends.

Sibling owns āOpium Eau de Toiletteā and the other red one, which I do like (the amber is lovely but the vanilla is possibly overriding- it does not smell like extract but I believe thatās what makes it sweeter and stronger.*In image left to right* 1. My Burberry (too floral; accidental purchase and had issues returning) 2. Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille (vanilla is slightly too strong but still a love). 3. YSL āLeā (review) 4 & 5. YSL Miniās: 4&5 āLibre Eau de parfumā & āBlack Opiumā too āfloral alcoholicā Bath and Body Works to me) 5. My Burberry Black (Germany) {too overwhelming, itās tooā¦ sweet? Itās not specifically floral like My Burberry Blush or Marc Jacobās Daisy, but more than a tap and the scent never leaves). 6. My Burberry Black (France) {my first perfume, 3x purchases. Sampler kit for full size included Marc Jacobās Decadence- purchased a roller of it but ended with MBB}.
Yves Saint Laurent (YSL) fragrances are some of my absolute favourites and Libre Le Perfume is no exception. It's sexy and luxurious and has great lasting power. This fragrance by YSL is perfect for date night or an evening out with he girls. The fragrance notes are floral with lavender but also spicy with a touch of saffron. The scent settles down nicely after being applied and isn't overly in your face but definitely there. Like all Yves Saint Laurent fragrances the bottle is stunning and displays nicely too.
I would have never bought this based on it's online description...then I received a free sample with another purchase. To me, this smells like if you're walking around a very classy downtown area, by high-end boutiques and then there's a fancy ice cream shop a couple doors down & when their doors open you get a whif of both. It's so classy & gorgeous with a light, grown-up, expensive-smelling, fresh vanilla dry down. Lasts about 4-6 hours on me with 2-4 sprays. I wear this to work or going out - probably wouldn't wear in very casual situations. The bottle is gorgeous. It's a new favorite.
Yves Saint Laurent Libre Le Parfum for Women is a stunning fragrance that perfectly balances sophistication and sensuality. The 3 oz bottle is beautifully designed, reflecting the elegance of the scent inside. The fragrance opens with a bold blend of lavender and mandarin, which quickly evolves into a heart of orange blossom and jasmine. The warm base notes of vanilla and ambergris add depth and longevity. This perfume is perfect for evening wear or special occasions, leaving a lasting impression wherever you go. A luxurious addition to any fragrance collection!
