The story behind the bottle.
Art Collection: La Nuit de L'Homme by Yves Saint Laurent was launched in 2014 and is a Woody Spicy fragrance for men, crafted by perfumers Anne Flipo, Pierre Wargnye, and Dominique Ropion. The composition opens with the freshness of cardamom and bergamot, followed by lavender and cedar that bring a sense of earthiness and warmth. Vetiver and caraway in the base notes add a touch of spiciness and depth, creating an intriguing contrast between freshness and complexity.
Apply two sprays to ensure the vetiver and caraway base notes have time to bloom. The cardamom opening is bright but fleeting, so a heavier first pass helps carry the fragrance through the day.
