YSL L'Homme Eau de Parfum Review

 

I was recently sent the new YSL L'Homme eau de parfum to try out and I wanted to share some of my thoughts here since it's a newer release. 


This is a men's cologne (still not sure why it was sent to me) and I had my boyfriend try it out. First, the packaging is gorgeous. The bottle is heavy glass with a hexagon top. The top isn't secured in any way and just sits on top of the bottle. I wish that it were magnetized to make it feel a little more luxurious. The liquid inside is an amber color, setting it apart from the other YSL men's colognes that are blue and green.


The description of the perfume is: 
"L’Homme Eau de Parfum is a warm and woody men's cologne inspired by an orange bourbon sour. Sparkling bitter orange creates tension with the warmth of bourbon notes from oakwood infusion and vetiver, reinventing the iconic L'Homme signature in a more intense version with a sensual trail."


I think the description is pretty accurate. The citrus notes hit strong at first, but it dries down to a sweet, slightly musky scent with a lot of vetiver. This is a more mature scent, better suited for someone in their late 20s or older rather than a teenager or college student. It is a little heavy and better suited for summer nights or fall and winter. 


Overall I would rate this perfume 4/5. It isn't the most versatile scent, but it smells really good and the heavy orange and vetiver notes are something that I haven't smelled in a perfume before. 

Let me know what your thoughts are if you've tried out YSL L'Homme eau de parfum
