Yves Saint Laurent have created a number of fragrance behemoths since their first, Y, in 1964. As is often the case in the world of perfumery, scents are discontinued to make way for new creations and favourite fragrances are lost. But fear not, Yves Saint Laurent fans – you’re in for a real treat.
To celebrate 50 years of expert perfume creation YSL have launched their La Collection Heritage, a range of eight classic YSL fragrance classics spanning each decade from the 1960s to the 2000s. From the frivolous glamour of Yvresse to the intense masculinity of Rive Gauche Pour Homme, each timeless essence is repackaged in a chunky, weighty bottle that reflects the prestige of the brand. Take a look at what’s been relaunched below…
Yves Saint Laurent Y Eau de Toilette
Y was Yves Saint Laurent’s first fragrant creation way back in 1964. An iconic scent with a strong-willed character, it is every bit as striking and sensual as as an Yves Saint Laurent couture design. The scent of aldehydes is paired with an abundant bouquet of honeysuckle, gardenia, tuberose, jasmine and Bulgarian rose for a beautifully signature.
Yves Saint Laurent Pour Homme Eau de Toilette
Pour Homme is a vibrant male fragrance first introduced in 1971, and was originally created for Yves Saint Laurent himself.

Yves Saint Laurent Yvresse Eau de Toilette
