The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2020, Mon Paris Christmas Collector by Yves Saint Laurent is a Chypre Fruity fragrance created by Olivier Cresp, Harry Frémont, and Dora Baghriche. The composition opens with the vibrant freshness of citrus notes like bergamot and orange, punctuated by the juicy sweetness of strawberry and raspberry. This fruity zest gives way to a heart of white florals such as datura, jasmine sambac, and peony, adding an airy, delicate quality. The base notes of patchouli, moss, and cedar provide earthy warmth and depth, grounding the fragrance in a cozy embrace.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays for a balanced experience. The fruity top notes are bright but short-lived, so layering this fragrance over a few hours can enhance its warmth and depth as the base notes emerge. It pairs well with cooler evenings when you want to feel cozy yet elegant.
