ELLA K BEAUTY REVIEW

Yves Saint Laurent Parisienne Eau de Parfum Review

Parisienne is a fruity rose scent on a woody base. The fragrance opens with a crisp blend of rose, peony and cranberry, and a sweet blackberry note follows closely behind. The rose flourishes in the middle accord and is subtly enhanced by a soft, powdery violet. Eventually, the rose accord fades to a woody musk finish. Notes include: Vinyl Accord, Peony, Damask Rose, Cranberry, Blackberry, Violet, Patchouli, Musk, Vetiver, Sandalwood.

Yves Saint Laurent Elle Eau de Parfum Review

Elle is a hybrid fragrance.  It’s a unique combination of a fruity-floral with some woody, borderline masculine notes.  The fragrance opens with sweet berries, lychee and a hint of woods/leather that permeates throughout the composition.  Gradually, soft florals emerge as the sweetness from the fruit fades a little.  I detect a hint of soft rose in the floral bouquet.  The drydown is sweet, slightly spicy and woody.  Notes include: Cedrat, Peony, Lychee, Pink Berries, Freesia, Jasmine, Patchouli, Vetiver, Ambrette.
