The story behind the bottle.
Cinéma Gold by Yves Saint Laurent was launched in 2005 as a limited edition, capturing the essence of a luxurious and sensual experience. The fragrance opens with a sparkling clementine that gives way to dominant sweet jasmine, peony, and amaryllis, creating a floral-oriental bouquet. White musk and delicate vanilla add warmth and depth, rounding out a composition that feels both fresh and indulgent.
Apply Cinéma Gold liberally to your pulse points; the fresh citrus top notes fade quickly but leave behind a lasting trail of warm florals and vanilla. This fragrance is best for daytime wear, as it reads beautifully close to skin without overpowering.
