Young Sexy Lovely: Yet Another YSL Perfumes Masterpiece
Young Sexy Lovely: Yet Another YSL Perfumes Masterpiece
By Carolina William
Chic, fresh and light, 'Young Sexy Lovely' by Yves Saint Laurent (YSL) is the ideal perfume for the woman of style and fashion. Oozing with the usual YSL perfumes' quality, this scent is sure to bring out the most feminine side of any attire. Named after the Algerian born designer Yves Henri Donat Dave Mathieu Saint Laurent, this house of fashion, beauty and fragrances has been offering quality items to the elegant, feminine, chic woman for over fifty years now.
Embracing and depicting the values and principles of Yves Saint Laurent, youngest designer to ever run a house of fashion and tyro to Christian Dior himself, YSL's purpose has made appointed efforts to heighten female looks with elegance and modernity.
This time, and with this perfume, the fashion and beauty house has again excelled. Embodied in a flat, clear crystal bottle with the trademark gold details of Yves Saint Laurent; this glamorous scent is marked with a note of Italian mandarin orange and exotic Nashi pear. The vivacious combination of fruity spirits renders 'Young Sexy Lovely' a playful, energetic perfume capable of drawing an air of self-confidence that the entire room will notice.
This great fragrance, regardless, slowly morphs into a slightly serious one thanks to the magnolia and cherry blossoms included into the mix. As the day passes, this fragrance peaks with freshness and ends with a soft light-woods and a whiff of fern.
The key to the YSL perfumes' stylish rests on the history of the brand itself. It is said that Christian Dior, the fashion genius whose name has too been immortalized on a fashion brand, was so impressed with Saint Laurent's fashion brilliance that the man became his right hand soon after joining his fashion house at the age of eighteen. Yves' genius, humility and integrity were such that Dior took to affectionately call him 'mon dauphin' (my dolphin), a nickname previously used and exclusive to the heirs of the throne of France.
Yves Saint Laurent was a man who lived by this motto: 'It's better to have honor than to have honors'. That was translated in professional, devoted work marked with humbleness in an industry where vanity and pride reign. Regardless of him coming off as more quiet and shy than witty, his genius was such that he was the first (and, to this day, only) fashion designer to have his work shown in the Metropolitan Museum of New York. Such is the man and spirit behind every YSL fashion piece and perfume.
Following the vision of the house creator, Yves Saint Laurent's creative staff once again develops a fragrance that provide any woman with grace and sensuality with this discreet yet stunning scent.
Ever since 'Y', the first of YSL perfumes, this brand has made its statement in the industry: beautify women, for theirs is the world.

CP - Exotic Perfumes
Did you know that perfumes were made thousands of years ago? Of course, packaging and marketing wasn’t an issue then. Perfumes are a $10 billion industry today. An average woman has at least 6 perfumes in her wardrobe (Only! I have 23 in mine).
Categories of perfumes
Perfumes are always judged by their smell and how long they last. You can smell different notes as you wear it all day like the top, middle and base note. Some of the most exotic perfume categories today include
- Floral perfumes- Inspired by the fragrances of flowers, these floral perfumes are made from their extracts like jasmine, lavender, rose, etc. Marc Jacobs Perfume Daisy and Yardley English rose top the list.
- Oriental perfumes- The traditional oriental perfumes are heavy and extremely exotic and sensual. Ingredients in these perfumes include oriental resins with exotic flowers and musk. They may be lightened with fruits and are a delight to explore. Gucci guilty is one of my favorites in this genre.
- Floriental- These are a merge of floral and oriental fragrances. The Clarins Par Amour created by Raphael Haury is a part of the oriental floral fragrance group, which is sensual and exotic.
- Chypre- Mossy woods fragrances are also known as Chypre Boisé. These fragrances have citrus notes along with oak moss woods and citrus tones. Issey Miyake pour home and Estee Lauder Knowing fall in the mossy woods perfume category.
- Citrus- Citrus perfumes have become very popular since the 80’s. They have a fruity base of oranges, lime, peaches, etc. without being overwhelmingly sharp. Diorella by Christian Dior and Tommy Summer by Tommy Hilfiger are a rage in this category
