La Nuit 2011

Inspired by YSL La Nuit De L'Homme (2011 Original Formulation)

Concentration: Eau de Parfum
Season: Fall/Winter

Fragrance Notes:
Top: cardamon, bergamot
Heart: lavender
Base: cedar, vetiver

Overview: La Nuit 2011 approaches its source material with admirable restraint. Cardamom and bergamot open with a spiced citrus that is clean and slightly cool, while lavender at the heart is handled with warmth and softness that places it firmly beyond barbershop territory. Cedar and vetiver in the base bring dry, quiet woodiness that grounds the composition without asserting itself. The whole fragrance wears close to skin, intimate and personal rather than projecting. Longevity is moderate at 6 to 7 hours. A fall and winter staple that rewards those who appreciate understatement.
