About
Elle by Yves Saint Laurent is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance for women. Elle was launched in 2007. Elle was created by Jacques Cavallier Belletrud and Olivier Cresp. Top notes are Litchi, Peony and Amalfi Lemon; middle notes are Pink Pepper, Rose, Jasmine and Freesia; base notes are Patchouli, Vetiver, Cedar and Ambrette (Musk Mallow). This beautiful passionate perfume by the house of Yves Saint Laurent arrived on the market in Autumn 2007, hoping to win the hearts of young and modern girls. Tender and distinguished fragrance Elle, designed by two renowned noses, Olivier Cresp and Jacques Cavallier, brings joy with luminous crisp notes of lemon and litchi on peony petals.Its heart unites Jasmine Sambac, rose and freesia, with youthful accords of pink berries, while the base caresses woody notes of vetiver, patchouli, and cedar. The face of the fragrance is young and extravagant 18-year-old Coco Rocha. The advertising campaign, as well as the bottle design, can say a lot about the perfume: it is a young, but pretentious fragrance within the frame of the "modern classic."
