About
Libre Eau de Toilette by Yves Saint Laurent is a Floral fragrance for women. Libre Eau de Toilette was launched in 2021. Libre Eau de Toilette was created by Anne Flipo and Carlos Benaïm. Top notes are Lavender, Bergamot and Mandarin Orange; middle notes are Orange Blossom, Jasmine Tea and Jasmine; base notes are Musk, Vanilla and Ambergris. A lighter, fresher take on the LIBRE signature fragrance. Twisting the original blend of lavender and orange blossom with white tea. Starring Dua Lipa, Global Fragrance Ambassador for YSL Beauty.LIBRE, the French word for ‘free’, pays tribute to YSL’s most defining value: freedom. Freedom to be yourself. Freedom of choice. No compromise. Your own rules. To embody LIBRE is British singer song-writer Dua Lipa.The structure of the original LIBRE composition celebrates the signature tension present in all YSL fragrances: the tension between aromatic lavender from France and sensual orange blossom absolute from Morocco. The Eau de Toilette takes this to another level in this next chapter of the Libre story, with the duality between warmth and cold. The smouldering orange blossom is infused with a colder, androgynous white tea accord, revealing a modern and bright fragrance full of sensuality.The composition is made by master perfumers Anne Flipo and Carlos Benaïm.The new fragrance is available as a 50 and 90 ml Eau de Toilette.

Top notes are Neroli, Orange Blossom, Clementine, Lime and Mandarin Orange; middle notes are Lavender, Peony and White Rose; base notes are Musk and Tonka Bean. Three years after launching the fragrance collection and the first edition Bottega Veneta, in collaboration with Coty Global Markets the new fragrance named Knot was presented and will arrive on the market in September 2014. Unlike the first EDP created in chypre-leather style, the new fragrance is much airier and abounds in floral and sparkling notes. Fragrance Bottega Veneta Knot is inspired by fresh air of the Italian coast, scent of flowers and clean laundry whose scent comes through the open windows. The fragrance is signed by perfumer of the house of Givaudan - Daniela Andrier, and provides top notes with a bunch of citrus shades originating from clementine, mandarin, lime, neroli and orange blossom. The fresh and optimistic opening notes add up to floral heart notes, among which are peony, white rose and lavender, posing a contrast to the earthy base of musk and tonka. Perfume Knot will be available as 30, 50 and 75ml Eau de Parfum, accompanied with body care products, among which one can choose body lotion, shower gel and body cream.
