The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Parisienne A L'Extreme by Yves Saint Laurent was launched in 2010 as a bold extension of the house's signature elegance. Crafted by perfumers Sophia Grojsman and Sophie Labbé, this fragrance opens with the bright zest of blackberry before diving into the heart-piercing floral notes of rose and violet. The base is a rich blend of suede, musk, patchouli, vanilla, incense, and daim, creating an intense and seductive experience that exudes temptation and mystery. The composition is designed to captivate with its powdery and intoxicating aromas, blending floral-fruity notes with warm and enigmatic accords.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays to your pulse points for an immediate hit of blackberry at the top. The fragrance will settle into its musky, floral heart within an hour, so give it time to develop on your skin before layering again if needed. It's best suited for evenings or special occasions when you want a scent that lingers and captivates.
