Yves Saint Laurent Mon Paris EDP
Description
Yves Saint Laurent Mon Paris Eau de Parfum, released in 2016 by perfumers Dora Baghriche, Harry Fremont and Olivier Cresp, is a fruity floral built as a love letter to the City of Light. It opens with a juicy rush of strawberry, raspberry and pear brightened by orange and bergamot, blooms into a heady peony-jasmine heart with a touch of datura and orange blossom, and finishes on a warm base of patchouli, white musk, vanilla and ambroxan. It's playful and romantic without losing depth.
