The Story

Launched in 2025, Y Iced Cologne by Yves Saint Laurent is a fresh aromatic fougère crafted by perfumer Dominique Ropion. This composition opens with mint and ice notes that create an immediate sense of cool crispness, reminiscent of a brisk morning walk. The heart of the fragrance features mint tea and blue sage, adding layers of complexity and depth. As it settles into its base, patchouli and ambroxan bring warmth and musky woody tones, creating a balanced contrast between freshness and richness.

Application Tips

Apply two sprays to your pulse points in the morning. The initial mint and ice notes will dissipate within an hour, giving way to the comforting warmth of the base notes. This fragrance is best enjoyed close to skin rather than projecting into a room.

Dominique Ropion portrait

Dominique Ropion is a daring perfectionist, a true inventor. The risks he takes are invariably accompanied by a relentless pursuit of exact olfactory balance and flawless composition. His perfumes are like great architectural feats: in the same way that a bridge, whose seemingly miraculous suspension of weight is in fact a harnessing of counteracting forces, Dominique often balances excessive doses of powerful ingredients with meticulously-measured, subtler accords, until the composition holds up on its own. A good perfume, he likes to say, must always appear obvious.
