So, I’ve been on this fragrance journey lately, trying to find something that really speaks to me, you know? And let me tell you, the new YSL men’s perfume, it’s been quite the experience. I’d heard some buzz about it, seen a few ads, and I thought, “Why not give it a shot?”

First off, I started by just reading up a bit online. It is called “Y” series. There’s all this talk about “fresh fragrance” with “notes of Bergamot and Sage” and some “woody cologne” stuff. Sounds fancy, right? And they say it’s for someone who “wants to smell intoxicatingly delicious and expensive” Well, who wouldn’t want that? So, I decided to try the Y Eau de Toilette, the one with “fresh lavender and aromatic sage” – seemed like a good place to start.
I went to the store, found the YSL section, and there it was. I picked up the tester and sprayed a little on those paper strips. The first whiff, it was definitely fresh, kinda citrusy, but not too overpowering. I sniffed it a few times, walked around the store a bit to let it settle. They say you gotta let it mingle with your body chemistry or something.
Trying It On
After a while, I decided to put some on my wrist. The guy at the counter told me to spray it on my “pulse points,” like my neck and wrists, for a “long-lasting trail.” I followed his advice, and man, it did smell different on my skin. More complex, a bit warmer, maybe? I spent the rest of the day catching whiffs of it whenever I moved. It’s clean, it smells not cheap and it is with some bite.
The Verdict
Honestly, I’m digging it. It’s not too strong, but it’s definitely there. People have noticed it, too. I’ve gotten a few “You smell good” comments, which is always nice. I think I might have found my new go-to scent. It makes me feel a bit more put together, a bit more confident, you know?
- Pros: Smells great, not overpowering, lasts a while.
- Cons: A bit pricey, but hey, you get what you pay for, right?
So yeah, that’s my experience with the new YSL men’s perfume. If you’re looking for something new, I’d say give it a try. It could be just what you’re looking for. Stay in the know and discover new arrivals in men’s and women’s fragrance collections. Who knows, you might find your signature scent, just like I think I did.
