The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2018 by Yves Saint Laurent and crafted by perfumer Olivier Cresp, Mon Paris Floral Eau de Parfum In Love Collector is a Chypre Fruity fragrance for women that balances bright fruity top notes with earthy and woody undertones. The composition opens with citruses and berries, creating an initial burst of freshness before transitioning into the floral heart of jasmine, datura, and peony. This floral bouquet is further enhanced by citrus blossom and pear, adding a subtle sweetness. As it settles, patchouli and oakmoss bring depth and earthiness, while musk and ambroxan provide a warm, sensual finish.
Apply this fragrance to pulse points for optimal longevity. The fruity top notes are vibrant but fleeting, so ensure the base notes have time to develop by allowing it to settle on your skin before heading out. This scent reads best close to skin rather than in a large room.
