The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2008 by Yves Saint Laurent and crafted by Michel Hy, Young Sexy Lovely Collector Edition Radiant is a vibrant floral-fruity fragrance that captures the essence of New Year’s Eve. The composition opens with the juicy freshness of pear, leading into the delicate blossoms of cherry blossom and magnolia. This floral fruit cocktail transitions smoothly to a base of musk and amber, creating an inviting warmth that lingers on the skin. Yves Saint Laurent has always been synonymous with elegance and sophistication, and this edition is no exception — its pink bottle adorned with star motifs adds a touch of celebratory sparkle.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance in light layers to let each note unfold gradually. The fruity top notes are bright but fleeting, while the musk and amber base provides lasting warmth. Best worn for evening events or special occasions when you want to feel radiant and confident.
