About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

Yves Saint Laurent Pour Homme (1971) opens with a bright, bracing citrus accord: lemon, bergamot, and lemon verbena are sharpened by lavender and petitgrain. This is not a soft modern citrus—it is crisp, classic, and immediately invigorating, setting the stage for a complex aromatic heart. Rosemary, geranium, and clary sage bring a green, herbal spiciness, while Brazilian rosewood and carnation add a subtle warmth and depth that keeps the composition from feeling austere.

The base is where this fragrance reveals its vintage character: a sturdy foundation of vetiver, patchouli, and cedar is smoothed by sandalwood, tonka bean, amber, and musk. The result is a dry, woody, and slightly sweet finish that lingers with a refined masculinity. This is a scent for the collector who appreciates traditional French perfumery—a gentleman's fragrance that suits formal occasions, cooler weather, and anyone who values structure over trend. It remains a benchmark of the woody aromatic family.

中文簡介

Yves Saint Laurent Pour Homme(1971)以檸檬、佛手柑、檸檬馬鞭草等明亮柑橘揭開序幕,並以薰衣草與苦橙葉增添銳利感。中調轉為草本與木質:迷迭香、天竺葵、鼠尾草帶來綠意辛辣,巴西玫瑰木與康乃馨則賦予溫暖深度。基調以岩蘭草、廣藿香、雪松為骨架,輔以檀香、零陵香豆、琥珀與麝香,呈現乾燥木質且略帶甜意的尾韻。整體是經典的木質芳香調,氣質陽剛、結構嚴謹,適合正式場合、涼爽天氣,以及欣賞傳統法國香水的收藏家。
