YSL Le Vestiaire des Parfums Gold EDP 75ml

THE OLFACTION

To glorify the brightest and most radiant of colors in fragrance, the Master Perfumer Dominique Ropion, chose the nighttime diva of the garden. Solar, voluptuously creamy, fruity, spicy, kissed with golden honeyed nectar, the intoxicating tuberose gives off a sublimely radiant scent from dusk to dawn. A supreme flower embodying the blaze of gold.

And as befits an icon, the flamboyant tuberose starring in Gold has an entourage of lustrous floral beauties. Tropical ylang-ylang with its golden petals and sultry jasmine sambac amplifies its solar creaminess and deliciously fruity tones in a supreme bouquet irradiating a rich amber glow.

THE INSPIRATION

No collection escaped Yves Saint Laurent’s golden touch. The very first piece he showed on the runway in his own name was a pea coat adorned with gold buttons. The warm metallic color lent its dazzling brilliance to brocade, lace, lamé, sequins, leather, embroidery. Evening pieces that seemed entirely sculpted out of gold, like the gleaming, goddess-draped, cut-out gown from Yves Saint Laurent’s autumn/winter 1991/1992.

Gold seamlessly blends simplicity with opulence. It’s very presence sublimates even the most understated designs, imbuing them with a sense of richness and extravagance without overwhelming their inherent elegance. The result is a sophisticated interplay between minimalism and luxury.
