The story behind the bottle.
L'Homme Sport, launched by Yves Saint Laurent in 2014 and crafted by perfumers Anne Flipo and Juliette Karagueuzoglou, is a Woody Aromatic fragrance that captures the essence of modern masculinity. The composition opens with fresh citrus notes of bergamot and verbena, creating an invigorating start. These vibrant top notes are complemented by aldehydes and coriander, adding an aromatic edge. As it evolves, woody notes like cedar and amber emerge, providing a warm and grounding base that sustains the overall freshness.
Apply two sprays to pulse points for a balanced experience. The citrus and aldehydic top notes are bright but fade within an hour, so ensure that the woody base has time to develop on skin. This fragrance is best suited for daytime wear when its fresh spiciness can uplift your mood.
