Launched in 2015, Saharienne by Yves Saint Laurent is an aromatic citrussy fragrance crafted by Alberto Morillas. It opens with the brightness of bergamot and petitgrain, bringing a fresh spicy warmth through pink pepper and clary sage. The heart unfolds into white florals like jasmine and neroli, while a musky base of vetiver and patchouli adds depth and earthiness. This composition captures a sense of crisp clarity and subtle complexity.

Application Tips
Apply Saharienne lightly to avoid overpowering its delicate balance. The top notes are bright but fleeting, so let it settle for a few minutes before heading out. It reads best close to skin rather than across a room.
