About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
Launched in 2017, YSL of is a woody aromatic masculine fragrance that opens with a brisk, effervescent blend of aldehydes, bergamot, ginger, lemon, and mint. This top layer is sharply fresh and spicy, with the aldehydes adding a soapy, vintage-style lift that collectors of classic YSL will recognize. The heart shifts to a juicy yet green accord: apple, pineapple, and violet leaf are tempered by sage and geranium, creating a fruity-aromatic tension that stays crisp rather than sweet. In the base, ambergris and musk provide a soft, slightly salty warmth, while cedar, vetiver, balsam fir, and incense add dry, resinous depth. The overall composition is fresh spicy (100%), aromatic (99%), and fresh (95%), with noticeable citrus, green, and fruity facets. It suits men who want a versatile, office-friendly scent with a retro-modern edge—ideal for spring and summer days, though the incense and fir give it enough backbone for cooler evenings. Collectors should note its discontinued status and increasingly scarce availability.
