The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2016, Mon Paris by Yves Saint Laurent was created by perfumers Olivier Cresp, Harry Fremont, and Dora Baghriche. This fragrance blends a vibrant fruity freshness with rich floral notes, creating an aroma that feels both modern and lasting. The opening of strawberry, raspberry, and pear is bright and inviting, giving way to the lushness of peony, jasmine sambac, and datura in the heart. A base of patchouli and white musk rounds out the composition with a warm, sensual finish.

Mon Paris became widely known on TikTok as an 'IT girl'/coquette-aesthetic signature scent, generating extensive dupe-comparison and review content on the platform. This popularity has cemented its place in contemporary fragrance culture.

How to wear it

Apply Mon Paris in layers for the best effect — the fruity top notes are bright but fleeting. The heart and base notes develop over time, so allow it to settle on your skin before reapplying if needed.
