Launched in 1983, Yves Saint Laurent Pour Homme Haute Concentration was created by perfumer Michel Hy and stands as a proof of the brand's legacy of sophisticated elegance. The composition opens with the bright freshness of Amalfi Lemon and Petitgrain, before transitioning into a heart of Carnation and Rosemary that adds both floral softness and herbal sharpness. The base notes of Patchouli, Tonka Bean, Woodsy Notes, and Nutmeg ground the fragrance with earthy warmth and subtle spice.

Application Tips
This fragrance has a long-lasting base that blooms over time. Apply two sprays to ensure the full depth of the composition is experienced throughout the day. The aromatic top notes fade quickly, so it's best applied in the morning for optimal longevity.
